Imagine you're counting marbles. If you have a bag of marbles and they never run out, like magic, that's infinite numbers. But if the bag has just 10 marbles, that’s not infinite. Some numbers are like that endless marble bag: there’s always more to count. Others stop at a certain number, like when you finish your candies and say, ‘That’s all of them!’
Examples
- A river that flows forever without stopping
- The number of stars in the sky, you’ll never count them all
