Easy explanation

Wave-particle duality is easily explained if a "particle" is represented by a "wave packet".

The wave-like behaviour is only apparent on scales approaching the geometric size of the particle, since this is the size of the bundle of waves. At larger scales, evidence of wave-like interactions is so weak they are lost in the noise.
