Why Do People Believe in ‘Myths’ and How Are They Passed Down Through Generations?

Myths are like special stories that people love to tell and remember. They help explain things we don't understand, like the weather or why the sun comes up every day. When parents tell their kids these stories, they become part of a family tradition, just like passing down your favorite recipe. Over time, new people add little bits of themselves to the story, making it even more interesting.
