my 9 year old asked why we have summer and winter. can you draw it so she gets it?

Sure! Here’s a simple picture of Earth at two points in its trip around the Sun:

   NORTHERN HEMISPHERE: SUMMER              NORTHERN HEMISPHERE: WINTER

          North pole ↗                            North pole ↗
                    /                                      /
              ( Earth )  ← ← ← ←       ☀       → → → →  ( Earth )
                 June                                      December
          tilted toward the Sun                    tilted away from the Sun

Earth is tilted, and it keeps leaning the same way as it goes around the Sun. When our part of Earth tilts toward the Sun, sunlight shines more directly and the days are longer—that’s summer. When it tilts away, the sunlight is less direct and the days are shorter—that’s winter.

It’s not because Earth is much closer to the Sun in summer. And when it’s summer in the Northern Hemisphere, it’s winter in the Southern Hemisphere—like in Australia.

The catch: The Earth is closest to the sun in early January, in the northern winter: the seasons come from its tilt.
