An ablution fountain is typically located in the center of a mosque's courtyard, similar to where Christian baptismal fountains were located in the basilica plan. It is where Muslims perform a ritual washing before entering the mosque for prayer.

Ablution is an Islamic religion requirement and a ritual worship before salah (praying). It is either minor ablution (called Wudu) or major ablution (called Ghosl). Refer to question below for more details.

Literally, ablution has the general meaning of washing the body or parts of body I Sometimes it is used as an adjective to describe a toilet or shower block like those found at a camping site eg: Where is the ablution block? If a Kid has to say few words on the Ablution in School then this answer won't be much helpful to the kid. So, I kindly request you to please explore it more by keeping it in mind that a kid has to give a 2 minute speech on Ablution. My suggestion is to describe more about the place rather than Islam, Jerulism or christanity. Thanks
