Personification is giving human traits to non human objects.
For example, if someone said “The trees danced back in forth in the wind” or “the smell of cookies pulled me into the kitchen” it would be personification.
This is because trees can’t dance, and cookies can’t “pull you”. Personification is used as a writing enhancer, and helps spice up your writing with a sarcastic and humorous explanation.
Also it can help describe things vividly.
