impress
When you impress someone, it’s like making a big splash in a puddle. Imagine you are jumping in a puddle and the water goes everywhere. The splash is so big that everyone around notices it. That’s what impressing someone is like. You do something so special or different that people can’t help but notice you.
Think of a bright, shiny star in the night sky. Most stars are small and twinkle softly, but when you impress someone, you are like the biggest, brightest star. Everyone looks up and says, ‘Wow, look at that!’ It’s like being the star that everyone wants to see because it’s so bright and amazing.
Imagine you’re building a tower with blocks, and you make it super tall without it falling over. Everyone watches and says, ‘Wow, how did you do that?’ That’s impressing them. You did something cool that made them surprised and happy.
Like when you draw a picture and show it to your friends, and they all say, ‘That’s awesome!’ You made something that made them feel excited and happy. That’s what it means to impress.
