I teach Gita to neighborhood kids. They ask about karma but my explanation feels too abstract. Any suggestions?

Use a simple example. If you plant a seed of a mango, you cannot expect a banana. Karma is just the law of consistency — what you sow, you reap. Then connect to choices: each action is a seed, and the Gita teaches us to plant only good seeds. Children grasp it instantly through that.
