#tdc4328 #ds106 #ds106 Explain A Difficult Concept to a Five Year Old

A quote often attributed to Albert Einstein

“if you can’t explain it simply you don’t understand it well enough”

(people still argue the source of the quote)

e.g.

PRESENTATION MISSION: KIDIFY

“If you can’t explain it to a 6 year old, you don’t understand it yourself.”

Think about a difficult concept in a course you teach or study; how would you explain it to a 5 or 6 year old? Can you fit it in a tweet?

The variant comes up too in reddit as explainitlikeim5, e.g. “ELI5: Why are places like Japan experiencing extreme heatwaves of 40-45 degrees celcius while equatorial areas such as Malaysia and Indonesia are not experiencing such high temperatures even though they are closer to the equator?” which has over 255 responses.
