Cable television

Okay, kiddo! Have you ever seen a TV? Well, cable TV is a special way of watching TV.

You know how you only get a few channels when you turn on your TV at home? With cable TV, you get a LOT more channels to choose from.

So, here's how it works:

There's a big company that makes TV shows and movies. They call themselves TV networks, and each one has a bunch of different channels.

When you sign up for cable TV, you pay the cable company every month to bring those channels to your house through a special cable that connects to your TV.

And Here's the fun part: With cable TV, you can use a remote control to change channels and watch all sorts of cool shows like cartoons, movies, sports, news, and more.

In short, cable TV is a way to get more TV channels than what you can already get with your regular TV.
