As the topic says, I need a very simple explanation of the theory of general relativity by Albert Einstein. Please assume I am a six-year-old child and break down the concept for me.

The theory of relativity usually encompasses two interrelated theories by Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity. … It introduced concepts including spacetime as a unified entity of space and time, relativity of simultaneity, kinematic and gravitational time dilation, and length contraction.

Albert Einstein, in his theory of special relativity, determined that the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, and he showed that the speed of light within a vacuum is the same no matter the speed at which an observer travels, according to Wired.
