Kindergarten · Science · Earth and Sky · Alberta, Canada

Lesson Summary

The sun is a star that gives us light and warmth every day.

Explanation

The sun is actually a star, but it is much closer to us than other stars. That is why it looks so big and bright. The sun gives us light so we can see during the day. It also gives us warmth. Without the sun, the Earth would be dark and very, very cold. Never look directly at the sun because it can hurt your eyes.
