Correct sentence:

When the giant blows his nose, it sounds like a trumpet.

Why this is better (easy words):

  • We say "blows his nose" when someone pushes air out to clear their nose. We don’t say "blows with its nose."
  • "When" tells us one thing happens because of another (the blowing makes a sound).
  • "It" means the sound the giant makes.

Other simple ways to say it:

  • "When the giant blows his nose, the sound is like a trumpet."
  • "The giant's nose sounds like a trumpet when he blows."

Nice sentence! You can choose the version you like best.
