Evolution works through natural selection. Natural selection means that some individuals in a species are better at surviving than others and will have more children.
For example, rabbit live all over, and have dark fur. But in a place where it snows a lot, white fur would be an advantage. A white furred rabbit would be harder to see and is more likely to survive and have children. These children will inherit its mum or dad’s white fur. Eventually all the rabbits living in the cold place will have white fur.
We evolved from apes following the same logic!
