A straw is like a tiny tunnel for your drink. Imagine you have a cup with your favorite juice inside. The straw is a long, thin tube that helps you sip the juice without tilting the cup. It’s like a magic bridge that lets the juice travel from the cup to your mouth. You put one end of the straw in the drink and the other end in your mouth, and then you suck gently, and the juice comes up through the straw.
Think of a straw as a friendly helper. Just like a slide in the playground helps you go from the top to the bottom, a straw helps the drink go from the cup to your mouth. When you suck on the straw, it’s like you’re inviting the drink to come to you, just like calling a friend over to play.
A straw can also be like a secret tunnel. If you have a drink that’s too full, using a straw keeps it from spilling everywhere. It’s like having a secret path that only your drink knows about, so it can reach you safely without making a mess.
