Rule and law can vary in terms of how serious they are.
Let’s look at it like this:

A rule is something you could hear in a school setting or with children. These are guidelines for how to behave and how to act in normal society. Rules help to make sure children learn about how to follow laws in the future.

[Tweet “Law is more serious and is applied to the whole of society. Adults have to follow law or they will face serious penalties such as imprisonment. “]
