Thaw is like when your ice cream melts on a warm day. When something is very cold, like ice, it is hard and solid. But when it gets warm, it starts to change and becomes soft and watery. This is called thawing. It’s like when you take your frozen toys out of the freezer and they start to feel normal again.
Think of a snowman. When the sun shines and it gets warmer, the snowman starts to drip and lose its shape. This is because the snow, which is frozen water, is thawing. The snowman is turning back into water because the warm sun is helping the ice to melt.
Imagine your favorite superhero is trapped in a block of ice. When the ice starts to thaw, the superhero can move again. The ice is changing from something hard and cold to something soft and wet, letting the superhero escape. Thawing is like giving the superhero the power to move again by turning the ice into water.
