Imagine a big, strong bird like an eagle. When it spreads its wings wide and flies high in the sky without flapping, it is soaring. The bird uses the wind to glide smoothly and go higher and higher without much effort. It’s like when you slide down a slide but in reverse, going up instead of down.

Think about a kite on a windy day. When the wind catches it just right, the kite goes up high into the sky, dancing and floating. That’s soaring too. It’s not just moving; it’s moving gracefully and effortlessly, like magic.

Now, imagine you’re on a swing. When you pump your legs hard enough, you go up, up, up, almost as if you’re flying. That feeling of going higher and higher, reaching for the clouds, is what soaring feels like. It’s a happy, free feeling, like you’re touching the sky.

Even when you’re really happy or excited, people say your heart is soaring. It means you feel like you’re flying because you’re so joyful.
