Question

My six year old daughter asks , "how does a zip work?" Any help please?

Answer 1

just look it up on the internet then show her

Answer 2

Have you ever heard of the book "The Way Things Work"? It's an entire book full of answers to questions like that (I know for sure that it has a chapter on zippers). It's basically a kid-friendly engineering text, so if you have a very inquisitive little girl, it might be a good investment!

Answer 3

Get a magnifying glass so she can see how the teeth on the zipper come together as you zip it up and down.

Answer 5

Grab something with a zipper on it ,sit her down next to you and you and her can take turns zipping it up and down, have her look closely at it while she is zipping so she can see how the zip goes together.
