Look at this handy kitchen box — it’s a microwave oven! It’s not a magic box, but it heats food very fast using special energy called microwaves.

It looks like a square or rectangular box with a clear door in the front. Inside, there’s a flat, round glass plate that spins around so food gets heated evenly. Outside, there are buttons or a dial to set the time and choose how hot you want the food.

It can warm up leftovers in minutes — like pizza, soup, or pasta. It can melt butter or cheese gently, even pop popcorn in a special bag!

When you close the door and press “Start,” the microwave sends invisible energy waves into the food. These waves make the tiny water molecules inside the food vibrate quickly, which creates heat — just like rubbing your hands together makes them warm!

Never put metal (like spoons, foil, or metal bowls) inside — it can cause sparks! Use only microwave-safe plates and containers. Always ask a grown-up for help when using it.

The microwave was invented by accident in 1945 when a scientist noticed a chocolate bar melted in his pocket near a radar machine! Now let's follow the tutorial to try drawing a microwave oven—it's very simple!
