❓ Questions Kids Ask
"Why does it have a big blade?"
The blade helps it push dirt and rocks into piles. It's like a giant, strong shovel on the front.
"Does a bulldozer dig?"
Bulldozers mostly push and level. Excavators and backhoes do most of the digging.
"Can it push a big rock?"
Sometimes yes. Bulldozers are very strong and can push heavy things, but really big rocks may need a crane.
"Why does it move so slow?"
It moves slowly because it's heavy and it's built for strong pushing, not speed.
