How are sedimentary rocks formed, and can you explain it in a fun and easy way for kids to understand?

Sedimentary rocks are formed when tiny pieces of rocks, minerals, and organic materials are pressed together over a long time. Imagine it like making a sandwich with layers of different ingredients squished together. Just like how you layer ingredients in a sandwich, sedimentary rocks are made up of layers of different materials that have been compacted and cemented together. So, sedimentary rocks are like nature's sandwich, made by squishing and stacking different materials over time!
