Verb
Verbs for kids are action words that describe what someone or something does. They show actions, events, or states of being. Here are some examples:

1. *Action Verbs:* Jump, run, dance, sing, eat, sleep, swim.
2. *Helping Verbs:* Am, is, are, was, were, have, has, had.
3. *Linking Verbs:* Be, become, feel, look, sound, taste, smell.

Verbs help kids express actions (like running or eating), connect ideas (with helping verbs like "is" or "have"), and describe characteristics or senses (linking verbs like "feel" or "smell").
