Because there was a phophsey, that Cronus' children would overthrow him as ruler of the universe, so Cronus' plan was to swallow every child Rhea had (Hera, Demeter, Hestia Poseidon, and Hades)but Zeus was saved by his mother, the youngest - for who Rhea fooled Cronus by bundling a rock. Zeus was sent to an island for safety, but he went back to make his father, Cronus, regurgitate all his siblings. In conclusion, Zeus was important because he saved all his siblings.

Rhea, the mother of Zeus, protects her child from the jealous Cronos by hiding Zeus in a cave on the island of Crete. To deceive Cronos, she gives him a stone wrapped in swaddling clothes instead of the newborn Zeus, leading him to believe he has swallowed his son. Rhea's cleverness ensures Zeus's survival, allowing him to grow up in secret and eventually fulfill his destiny to overthrow Cronos and free his siblings.

How does Zeus mother save him from cronos?

Well, my friend, in Greek mythology, Zeus's mother, Rhea, saved him from Cronos by tricking him. She gave Cronos a stone wrapped in a blanket to swallow instead of baby Zeus. This clever plan allowed Zeus to grow up safely and eventually overthrow Cronos to become the king of the gods. Just like Rhea, sometimes we have to be resourceful and think outside the box to protect the ones we love.
