### Evenly distributed children
Evenly distributes child elements within a parent element.
#### HTML
```html
<div class="evenly-distributed-children">
<p>Item1</p>
<p>Item2</p>
<p>Item3</p>
</div>
```
#### CSS
```css
.evenly-distributed-children {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
}
```
#### Demo
<div class="snippet-demo">
<div class="snippet-demo__evenly-distributed-children">
<p>Item1</p>
<p>Item2</p>
<p>Item3</p>
</div>
</div>
<style>
.snippet-demo__evenly-distributed-children {
display: flex;
width: 100%;
justify-content: space-between;
}
</style>
#### Explanation
1. `display: flex` enables flexbox.
2. `justify-content: space-between` evenly distributes child elements horizontally. The first item is positioned at the left edge, while the last item is positioned at the right edge.
Alternatively, use `justify-content: space-around` to distribute the children with space around them, rather than between them.
