ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Button (computing)

A button is like a magic spot on your computer screen that you can click with a special tool called a mouse. When you click a button, it makes your computer do something like open a program or take you to a new webpage. Buttons can be different sizes, shapes, and colors, and they often have words on them that tell you what they do. Think of it like pressing a button on a toy to make it light up or make noise. It's just like that, but for your computer!
