Have you ever seen a really big mountain? Well, the Himalayas are like a line of super duper big mountains that go through parts of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. They are so big that they look like they are touching the sky!
These mountains were formed millions of years ago when the plates (like really big puzzle pieces) that make up the Earth's surface crashed into each other. This created a collision that pushed up the land and made these giant mountains.
The Himalayas are made up of lots of different kinds of rocks and some parts of the mountains are covered in ice and snow all year round. Can you imagine that? It's like winter time all the time! That's why some people call the Himalayas the "Roof of the World" because they are so high up in the sky.
Lots of different animals, like yaks and snow leopards, live in the Himalayas. People also live there too! They have to be really tough because it can get really cold and snowy. But they think the beautiful views and fresh air are worth it.
So, in summary, the Himalayas are really big mountains that were made a long time ago when the Earth's plates crashed into each other. They are covered in ice and snow and lots of animals and people live there. The End!
