Battle cry

Okay kiddo, imagine you and your friends are playing a game of tag. Sometimes when you're playing, you might hear one of your friends shout something really loud when they're about to run away or try to catch someone. That loud shout is called a "battle cry"!

You might also hear it in movies or when people are playing games like sports, where they're trying to get pumped up and excited to do their best. It's like a cheer or chant that helps them feel more confident and ready to fight, play or compete.

So when you hear a battle cry, it's like someone is trying to inspire themselves or their team to do their best and be brave, just like how you might cheer yourself on when you're trying to do something hard or scary, like riding a bike without training wheels for the first time or getting up to give a speech in class.

So go ahead, give yourself a battle cry the next time you're trying to do something tough! Remember, you're strong and capable, just like a brave warrior on the battlefield!
