Lance

Okay, so imagine you are playing with a long stick. This stick is called a lance. It’s like a spear, but it’s much longer and used for different things.

A long, long time ago, people used lances to fight in battles. They would ride horses and hold the lances in their hands. They would charge towards their enemies and try to hit them with the pointy end of the lance.

Nowadays, lances aren’t used for fighting as much. People still use them, but for different reasons. They use them in sports like jousting or in parades.

So, a lance is like a long stick that people used to fight with a long time ago. Now, people use them for different things like sports and parades.
