Curtain ring

Okay kiddo, have you ever seen a curtain hanging in a window or doorway? Have you noticed that it has rings attached to it? Those are called curtain rings!

The curtain ring is a little circle that is made out of metal or plastic, and it has a small clip on it called a hook. The hook is what grabs onto the curtain and holds it up, so the curtain can hang from a rod above the window.

The ring is really important because it helps keep the curtain in place and makes it easier to open and close it. Without the rings, the curtain would just bunch up on the rod and be hard to move around.

So next time you see a curtain hanging in a room, remember that the little circles with clips on them are called curtain rings, and they help keep the curtain in place and easy to use!
