The new moon is only a little sliver, and the full moon is completely full. Waxing means it is getting bigger, and waning means it is getting smaller.

New moon is different than the full moon because the full moon is not all white like the new moon.

The waxing moon looks like it is getting smaller. The waning moon looks like it is getting bigger.

full moon is when the sunlight is reflecting on the moon making the whole moon shine.

new moon has no sunlight reflecting on it.

waxing happens after the full moon.

waning happens after the new moon.

The new moon is dark and the full moon is white and bright.

A waxing moon is growing and a waning moon is shrinking.

A new moon is dark and you cannot see it. A full moon is all lit up and you can see all of it.

When the moon is waxing, it is getting bigger. When the moon is waning, it is getting smaller.
