ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

All-terrain vehicle

Okay kiddo, imagine you have a cool new toy that you can ride on. This toy is kind of like a mini car, but it can go on all kinds of different terrains like dirt, grass, sand, and even rocks.

This special toy is called an all-terrain vehicle or ATV for short. It has four wheels and a handlebar for steering. You sit on a seat and use your feet to control the gas and brakes, just like when you ride a bike.

You might see people riding ATVs in the countryside, on farms, or even in races. They are built to be tough and durable so they can handle all kinds of bumpy and rough surfaces.

But remember, just like with any other toy, it's important to be safe and wear a helmet and other protective gear when riding an ATV. And always make sure you have an adult supervising you.
