A flat piece of wood or other material attached to a wall to hold things.
The word 'shelf' comes from an old word meaning 'to split' because early shelves were made by splitting wood into flat pieces!
A shelf is like a special resting place for your toys, books, and treasures! It's attached to the wall so your favorite things have their own cozy spot to sit.
