Garbage is like the leftover pieces of a puzzle that you don’t need anymore. When you finish a puzzle, sometimes there are extra pieces that don’t fit anywhere. These extra pieces are like garbage because they don’t have a place in the picture you’re making. Garbage is anything we don’t need or use anymore, like the crusts of a sandwich or the wrappers from candy.
Think of your room as a treasure box. You keep your favorite toys and books in it. But sometimes, there are broken toys or old papers that don’t make you happy anymore. These things are like garbage because they’re not treasures to you anymore. Cleaning them up makes your room a nicer place, just like sorting through a treasure box to find the best gems.
Imagine a garden full of beautiful flowers. But if there are weeds that don’t belong, they can take away the water and sunlight from the flowers. Weeds are like garbage in the garden because they stop the flowers from growing their best. Removing garbage helps everything around it to be healthier and happier.
