It’s not that the sun is rising, it’s that the earth is rotating relative to the sun. Grab a flashlight, a tennis ball, and maybe a little toothpick/piece of tape to put on the tennis ball like it’s a person standing up. Shine the light on the tennis ball and rotate it with your little person on there. As they rotate around, it will look like the sun is rising/setting to them
