How does a microphone work for kids to understand?

A microphone works like a tiny speaker in reverse! When you talk or make noise, sound waves travel through the air and hit a special part inside the microphone called a diaphragm. This diaphragm vibrates, turning the sound waves into electrical signals. Those signals then travel to a speaker or recording device, allowing others to hear your voice!
