Testimonial

Hey there kiddo! Want to know what a testimonial is?

A testimonial is when someone talks about how much they like something, like a toy or a game, and they tell other people about it.

For example, if your friend Sarah really loves her new bike, she might tell you all about it and say things like "I love my bike so much, it's so easy to ride and it's my favorite color."

This kind of talking about something can be really helpful for other people who are trying to decide whether they want to get something or not. It's like getting advice from a friend who has already tried something and thinks it's great.

In the business world, companies often ask their customers for testimonials to help persuade other people to buy their products or services. These testimonials might be written down or recorded, so that other people can read or hear them later.

So next time you want to tell your friends about something you really love, you're actually giving a testimonial!
