Fire engine

Okay kiddo, a fire engine is a special truck that helps firefighters put out fires. It's big and red, and it has a lot of cool gadgets on it.

The first thing you might notice is the big ladder on top. Firefighters use this ladder to climb up on top of buildings or reach high places that need to be checked for fires or rescued people.

The fire engine also has something called hoses. These are long, special tubes that can squirt water onto fires. Firefighters use these to put out the flames and make sure the fire doesn't start up again.

There's also something called a fire pump on the fire engine, which is like a giant water pump. It helps the firefighters get the water out of the hoses and onto the fire.

But that's not all! The fire engine also has tools to cut through walls, doors, and other obstacles to get to people who might be trapped inside a building. And there are special saws to cut holes in roofs to help smoky air escape.

So in short, kiddo, a fire engine is a big truck that helps firefighters do their job of putting out fires and rescuing people. It has lots of cool gadgets like ladders, hoses, fire pumps, and tools to break through walls and roofs.
