The Magic Dance of Boiling!

Boiling is like a magic dance that happens in a pot! When you heat water, it starts to bubble and swirl, just like a happy little party.

The bubbles are tiny pockets of air that want to escape. When the water gets really hot, it starts to boil!

You can use boiling to cook yummy pasta or make warm soup. But remember, boiling water is super hot, so always ask an adult for help.
