The process of melting is endothermic because you are adding heat (or energy) to the object. When you add heat or energy to an object it begins to melt , Which tells you the object has reached its melting point or the temperature that the object melts at.

endothermic is adding heat or energy (ENdothermic means ENtering)

exothermic is removing heat or energy (EXothermic means EXiting).

Conversely, the process of freezing is exothermic.

And easy way to remember this is that when ice melts it makes things cold. This is because it is sucking in the heat.
