It reflects light from the sun.
The moon seems to shine at night, because it reflects the light given off by the sun. We can not see the moon's reflection during the day, because the sun light is too bright, but, at night, the moon reflects the light given off by the sun and we can see it.
The sun's gravitational pull causes the moon to orbit around the Earth, resulting in the moon's phases as we see from Earth. The sun also illuminates the moon, causing it to appear bright in the sky as it reflects sunlight.
The moon shines because it reflects light from the sun. Sunlight hits the surface of the moon, and the reflective properties of the moon's surface cause it to shine and appear bright in our night sky.
Since the sun has already set on earth when you see the shining moon, the brightly lit moon is just the reflection of the sun's rays off its surface. Sometimes during the day you can see the moon, but generally it is too bright when the sun is up to see the moon's reflected light.
neat heat, fine shine, bright light

You may have noticed that when you shine a flashlight on a thing, you can see the thing in the dark. The sun is always shining on the moon, lighting up one side of it. When we look at the moon, we can see the lit-up side, even in the dark.
The moon shines white because it reflects sunlight. The sun's light hits the moon's surface and bounces off, making it appear bright in the night sky.
your eyes shine like a sunset and are bright like a sunset
During daytime, the moon doesn't shine as brightly because it reflects the sun's light and is often washed out by the brightness of the sun. You may be able to see the moon during the day if it is close to the horizon or during certain phases of the moon when it is bright enough to be visible against the blue sky.
