The moon looks bigger sometimes because it’s closer to Earth. Imagine you have a ball that you hold up close to your face, it looks big, right? But if you move it far away, it seems smaller. The same thing happens with the moon: when it's closer to us, we see it as larger. That special time is called a supermoon.
Examples
- A supermoon is like when your friend holds up a big balloon close to their face, it looks huge!
