Passover explanation=our nation of jews were freed from slavery and were redeemed

Shavuous explanation=day we received the bible (old testament) from G-d

Succos explanation=we traveled 40 years in the desert upon leaving to freedom from Passover….. And lived in tents so we now eat in tents/Succos during these days of the year.

Good luck. You can expand the explanation a little longer
