The human sense of touch is like having tiny sensors all over your skin that tell you when something is hot, cold, rough, or soft. These sensors send messages to your brain through nerves, and that's how you feel things, like the texture of a blanket or the pressure from holding a pencil.
Examples
- A child feels the softness of a stuffed bear
- Your hand burns when you touch a hot stove
- You notice that your sock is rough and itchy
