📜 Read it aloud
Have you ever wondered where rain comes from?
It begins when the sun heats the sea and turns water into invisible vapour.
This is called evaporation.
The vapour rises and cools, gathering into tiny droplets that form clouds.
This is condensation.
Inside a cloud, droplets bump together and grow heavier.
When they become too heavy to float, they fall as rain.
This journey — evaporation, condensation, rain — is called the water cycle.
In Singapore, where afternoon showers are common, you can often watch the whole cycle in a single day.
Next time it rains, remember: every drop has travelled a very long way to reach you.
