Okay kiddo, so do you know what the word “association” means? It’s when two things are connected or related to each other in some way.
Now, let’s talk about a “trio.” That means a group of three things.
So when we talk about an “association trio,” we are talking about three things that are connected to each other. They might be connected by a relationship, a shared characteristic, or something else.
For example, let’s say we have the association trio of “cats, mice, and cheese.” Cats are associated with mice because they like to chase and catch them. Mice are associated with cheese because they love to eat it. And cats are also associated with cheese because they might try to steal it from the mouse!
Does that make sense? An association trio is just a group of three things that have some kind of connection to each other.
