Wood glue

Okay kiddo, so you know how sometimes when you play with blocks or do art projects, you want to stick things together? Well, adults use something called wood glue to stick pieces of wood together.

Wood glue is like a magic potion that seeps into the tiny cracks and holes in the wood and hardens to hold the pieces together. It's like how when you put your hands together and press them really hard, they stay together for a bit before sliding off.

The glue is usually white and gooey, kind of like when you mix liquid glue with water. Adults have to put a thin layer of glue on both pieces of wood and hold them together for a while until the glue dries and gets hard. Then, the pieces of wood stay stuck together like glue!

Wood glue is really helpful when building things like furniture, birdhouses, or even just a cool toy. It's important to remember to only use just enough glue so that it doesn't seep all over the place and make a mess. And if you do get some on your hands, make sure to wash them off with soap and water right away!
