Shelf life

Shelf life is how long something will stay good. To make sure things stay good for as long as possible, it's important to store them in the right places. For example, food can go bad if it's not kept in a fridge or freezer. It's also important to look for expiration dates on food and only buy things that will stay good for a long time. Other things, like toys or books, can also have shelf lives, so you should make sure to check those too.
