Most elementary and junior high school children find that mythology is one of their favorite units in school. It can be fascinating to learn about Zeus and Jupiter and their expansive families. Of course mythology isn't limited to the Greeks and Romans. Mythology can refer to folklore in any country.
Myths are usually stories that are about a god or supernatural human. Myths commonly take place in ancient times or before humans were on the planet. They're used to explain why the world is the way it is. They also have a deeply rooted spiritual or religious connection.
