Even things that aren't living change. Even mountains, deserts and oceans change, but it takes many years. Nothing ever stays the same.

Sometimes it is hard to tell that things are changing because they change so slowly. Every morning you may wear the same jeans, but one day you will look down and see that your pants look smaller. Your pants didn't get smaller, you got taller. You are growing and you are changing.

We plant seeds in the garden, and as we care for them we can watch as they change. Foods change when mixed together and cooked, baked, or frozen.

Water can be frozen so that it changes into ice. Water can be heated until it boils and becomes steam. Fresh foods do not last forever. When they get old, they rot and change.

Everyday the weather changes. Days change into nights and nights change back into days. Clocks and calendars are used to measure these changes.

Some trees change their color and lose their leaves. By mixing paints we can change colors. Adding water to sand changes the way it feels and looks. Putting chocolate in milk changes its color and taste. Getting your haircut changes the way you look. Making a friend changes the way you feel.
