How hot or cold something is, it is determined by the kinetic energy of its particles
Real World Example
Imagine you're stuck in traffic, and the flow of cars seems to dictate how long your journey will take. This situation is similar to how the temperature of an object is determined by the speed and movement of its particles. Just as the density and speed of cars influence how quickly you can reach your destination, the kinetic energy of particles determines whether an object feels hot or cold; faster moving particles in a material mean higher kinetic energy and a higher temperature, much like a faster traffic flow means a quicker trip.
