Restrict means to set limits or boundaries on something. Imagine playing in a big park with your friends. If your parents say you can only play in the sandbox and not go beyond it, they are restricting where you can play. The sandbox becomes your special area, and you have to stay within its edges.
Think of a fence around a garden. The fence keeps the plants safe inside and stops them from growing all over the place. The fence is a restriction that helps the garden stay neat and tidy.
Another example is when you have a box of crayons. If your teacher says you can only use the red and blue crayons today, you are being restricted to just those colors. It’s like a rule that helps you focus on using specific colors and not the others.
Restrictions are like rules or guidelines that help keep things organized, safe, or fair. They might seem like they stop you from doing everything you want, but they also help make sure everyone gets a turn and everything stays in order.
