Viruses are super, super small germs. They are so small that you can't see them with your eyes. You need a special machine called a microscope to see them. They are much smaller than the dust you see floating in the sunlight.

Viruses can make you feel sick. When a virus gets inside your body, it can cause things like a cold, a cough, or a fever. That's when you might feel tired, have a runny nose, or feel hot.

But how do viruses get inside your body? Well, they can get in through your nose, mouth, or eyes. For example, if someone who has a cold sneezes or coughs near you, tiny droplets with the virus can float in the air and then get into your nose or mouth.

Don't worry though! There are many ways to keep viruses away. Washing your hands with soap and water is a great way to keep them clean. When you wash your hands, the soap helps to wash away the germs, including viruses. Also, covering your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze can help keep the germs from spreading to other people.

Our bodies are also really good at fighting viruses. When a virus gets inside, our body's special fighters, called the immune system, work hard to get rid of it.

That's why sometimes when you're sick, you feel better after a few days. Your body is winning the battle against the virus! Let's learn how to draw a cartoon virus, it's an easy thing to do and you can do it quickly!
