Here is a very simple way to explain it.
Consider any circle, the top of a coffee can or soup can will do.
Hold a string along the diameter of the can.
You will be able to fold that length around the can π times.
that is, three times and "a bit" left over.
that "bit left over" will be the decimal part of the value of π
or
Fold a string around a can and measure its length, that is called the circumference.
Measure the diameter of the can
Divide the circumference by the diameter, you will get an approximation of π
