Cushioning

Well kiddo, cushioning means having something soft and fluffy to protect us from getting hurt when we fall or jump. Just like how we put pillows on our bed to make it comfy, cushioning helps our feet, knees and other body parts to feel less impact when we step or jump on hard surfaces.

Imagine if we jump off a high table onto the ground without anything to cushion our fall, it would hurt a lot and we might even get injured. But if we have something soft like a big fluffy pillow or a cushiony mat, it can absorb some of the impact and make it not hurt as much.

In shoes, cushioning is like having a squishy layer inside to help our feet feel more comfortable and reduce the shock of our steps or movements. It's like walking on clouds!

So, cushioning is like having a soft and fluffy layer to protect us and make us feel comfortable. Whether it's for our bodies or our feet, we all like to have some cushioning to make us feel good!
