Four-wheel drive

When you're driving a car, your wheels help you move forward or turn left or right. Four-wheel drive is special because it means all four wheels can help you move, instead of just two. This is really helpful if you're driving on a bumpy or slippery road, or if you want to go off-roading in the dirt, mud or snow.

Think of it like this: when you're pushing a heavy cart, it's easier if someone helps you push from behind. Four-wheel drive is like having an extra person push the cart with you, so it's easier to move forward.

Cars with four-wheel drive have a special system that sends equal power to all four wheels. This means all the wheels can move at the same speed, which helps you drive smoothly and safely. It's like having four legs instead of two - it makes you stronger and more balanced.

So, when you see a big truck or SUV with four-wheel drive, you know that it's designed to help you get through tough conditions and keep you safe on the road!
