What Is Power?

• Power, or electricity, is the energy that makes our lights, toys, and machines work.
• It travels through wires hidden inside walls to reach the plugs in our homes.
• Power is like "food" for our gadgets; without it, they cannot turn on.

How We Use Power at Home

• Lighting: We use power to turn on lamps and bulbs so we can see when it is dark.
• Keeping Food Fresh: The refrigerator uses power to stay cold so our milk and fruits don't spoil.
• Learning and Fun: Computers, tablets, and televisions need power so we can watch videos and learn new things.
• Cleaning: Machines like vacuum cleaners use power to help us keep our floors clean.

Power in the Kitchen

• Toasters use power to turn bread into crunchy toast using heat.
• Blenders use power to spin fast and mix yummy fruit shakes.
• Microwaves use power to heat up our food very quickly.

Staying Safe Around Power

• Power is very strong, so we must never touch plugs or wires with wet hands.
• We should always ask a grown-up to help us plug something into the wall.
• It is important to keep toys and water away from electrical outlets.

Saving Power

• Saving power is good for our planet Earth.
• We can save power by turning off the lights when we leave a room.
• When we are finished watching TV or playing a game, we should turn it off to rest the machine.

Lesson Summary

• Power is the energy that flows through wires to make things work.
• We use power for light, heat, and to run important machines in our daily lives.
