Prepositions are small but important words that tell us where things are or when something happens. They help connect nouns and pronouns to other parts of a sentence. Common prepositions include words like "in," "on," "under," "between," and "behind." For example, when we say "The ball is under the table," the word "under" tells us the location of the ball. Prepositions make sentences clearer and easier to understand, especially when describing positions. Kids often learn prepositions through fun exercises, pictures, and real-life examples, making it easy to grasp the concept. Practicing prepositions helps improve communication skills and builds a strong foundation in English grammar.
