Here are three playful ways to say it for a 6-year-old:
- Camels keep a squishy snack in their hump — when they’re hungry or thirsty, they turn that fat into food and a bit of water!
- Think of a camel’s hump as a secret lunchbox: its fat becomes energy and water so the camel can travel a long time without eating or drinking.
- The hump is the camel’s superpower pack — it stores fat that the camel uses like tasty fuel and tiny water drops when food and water are far away.
Short and simple: the hump is fat the camel can change into energy and some water when it needs it.
