How do magnets stick to a fridge?

👶 Short Answer (For Little Kids)

Magnets stick to fridges because they are made of metal that magnets like.

🧠 Detailed Explanation (For Older Kids)

Magnets stick to fridges thanks to a special property called magnetism! Inside magnets, tiny particles called atoms are arranged in a way that creates a magnetic field. When you put a magnet on the fridge, it pulls on the metal surface, making it stick! That’s why you can hang up your drawings and notes with them.
