A fun explanation about the purpose and function of hoses on fire engines, designed for 9-year-olds.
Fire hoses are really important tools that firefighters use to put out fires. When a fire starts, every second counts, and they need to act fast!
A fire hose is a strong, long tube that carries water from the fire engine to the fire. These hoses are made of durable materials to handle the high pressure of the water.
Fire hoses allow firefighters to spray large amounts of water quickly, which douses the fire and helps keep people safe. They can be used to fight different kinds of fires, whether it’s from a building, a car, or even wildfires.
And that's all about fire hoses on fire engines! Next time you see a fire truck, you’ll know how those hoses help keep us safe!
