Explaining temperature to kids is easiest by comparing it to how things feel to the touch. You can tell them that temperature is a measure of how hot or cold something is, like ice cream melting on a sunny day versus a warm bowl of soup in the winter. You can explain that tiny, invisible particles inside everything are moving around; when they move fast, things get hot like a stove, and when they move slow, things get cold like a snowflake.
