The video tutorial explains the concept of mass measurement using kilograms and grams. It begins by introducing the kilogram as the standard unit for measuring mass, using a bottle of milk as an example. The tutorial then discusses measuring smaller masses, using a jar of sugar to illustrate fractions of a kilogram. It introduces the gram as a smaller unit, explaining its lightness with examples like a paperclip and a pencil. The video further explores measuring various objects in grams, such as a can of corn and a loaf of bread.
