When you linger somewhere, it means you stay there for a little longer than usual. Imagine when you eat a yummy ice cream, and you don’t want it to end, so you take tiny bites to make it last longer. That’s like lingering with your ice cream.

Think about when you visit a fun park and you don’t want to leave. You walk slowly, looking at everything one more time. That’s lingering too!

Or when you hug your teddy bear for a long time before bed because it makes you feel safe and happy. You linger in that hug because it feels so nice.

Lingering is like when a butterfly flutters around a flower, not in a hurry to go somewhere else. It enjoys the moment, just like you when you want to stay a bit longer in a fun place or with someone you love. It’s about taking your time and enjoying where you are.
