Box motor

Okay, so imagine you have a toy car that you can wind up with a key. When you wind it up, it makes the wheels move and the car goes forward. A box motor is kind of like that toy car, except it's bigger and more powerful. Instead of a key, you plug it into an electric outlet or put batteries in it to make it go. When you turn it on, it spins a wheel or a shaft really fast, which can be used to power other things like a fan or a toy train. It's called a "box" motor because it's usually housed in a box-shaped container to protect the motor and keep it from getting damaged. So basically, a box motor makes things move by spinning really fast!
