A timeline is a special way to show events in the order they happened. It helps people see when things occurred, like birthdays or important historical events. For example, if you made a timeline of your life, you might start with your birth, then add when you learned to walk, and later when you started school. Each event is placed on a line, showing the order clearly, just like a ruler shows measurements.
