When we talk about something being fair, think about playing on a seesaw. If one side is heavier, it goes down and the other side goes up. For the seesaw to be fair, both sides need to have the same weight. This means everyone gets a chance to have fun without one side always being up or down.
Another way to see fairness is like sharing a cake. If you cut the cake into pieces, being fair means everyone gets a piece that’s the same size. It wouldn’t be fair if one person gets a big piece and another gets a tiny piece.
Fairness is also like playing a game where everyone follows the same rules. If someone cheats, it’s not fair because they are not giving everyone an equal chance to win.
Finally, think of fairness as taking turns. When you and your friend both want to play with the same toy, being fair means you each get a turn. This way, everyone gets a chance to enjoy playing.
