TO is a preposition
TOO is an adverb

Look them up in a dictionary for examples of how each is used.

Too is similar to also in some contexts, as in 'me too' however it can also be used with 'too much' and 'too cold' etc indicating a superfluity of something: 'there's too much rain to go outside'.... To is basically used for locations and specific destinations (this can be a person also) for example: 'I'm going to Alaska' or 'Please give this to Anna'.
Hope this helps.

I remember it this way.
TO = an action word (verb)
I am goint to the movies.

TOO= (an adverb) Or think of it as meaning "including"
I want to go to the movies too.

I have to go before it gets too late.
There are too many people in the room.
I would like to leave early.
You have to move your car because it is too close to the wall.
It is too early to eat dinner.

Sometimes, 'too' can mean 'also'.
He is going to Japan and I am going too.

Very simply put:

too means also, as in: I want some icecream, too.

to is a preposition, as in to the store, to eat

TOO is an over abundance

"to" is kinda like a direction (i am going to buy..., i am going to the store...)
"too" means also (i, too, bought one..., i am going to...)

to use both:
I am going to the store too. ...

'To' refers to 'going towards'

'Too' means 'as well as'
