Hey, buddies! Gather around because we've got some wild news – there was an earthquake today! Yep, the ground did a little shake dance, and it's like nature decided to throw a surprise party. Let's chat about it in our own words.

So, earthquakes are when the Earth does a little jiggly wiggle, and today, it happened in some places. No worries, though! Earthquakes are like Earth's way of stretching or, you know, adjusting its comfy blanket.

Now, here's the scoop – when the ground shakes, it can feel a bit like riding a bumpy rollercoaster. Sometimes things on shelves might do a little dance too. But guess what? Our houses are like superheroes – they're built strong to handle these surprise jiggles.

Now, let's talk about safety because that's our number one superhero move. If you're indoors when the Earth decides to dance, find a cozy spot away from windows and heavy stuff. It's like creating your own little fort until the Earth's dance party is over.

If you're outside, find an open space away from tall things. No need to worry, just like when you play tag, find a safe spot until the shaking stops

And guess what? Earthquakes are like celebrities – they have little fans that can measure their dance moves. Scientists use these things called seismometers to check out how wild the earthquake was.
