What is an Engine?

An engine is like a magic machine that helps things move! Have you ever seen a toy car that goes on its own? That’s because it has an engine inside!

How Does it Work?

Imagine you have a toy that you need to push to make it go. An engine does something similar, but instead of you pushing it, it uses special things like gas or electricity to help it move. It makes the car go ‘vroom vroom’!

Where Do We Find Engines?

You can find engines in many places:

  • In cars that take us to the park.
  • In trains that go choo-choo!
  • In airplanes that fly in the sky.

What Do Engines Help Us Do?

Engines help us go fast! They can take us to fun places like the zoo, the beach, or even on a big airplane trip to see grandma.

Can You See an Engine?

Sometimes you can see engines! When you look under the hood of a car, there’s a big engine hiding there. It can be very shiny and has lots of parts!

Fun Fact!

Did you know that some engines are really big, like those in ships that sail on the ocean? And other engines are tiny, like the ones in small toy cars!

Engines are wonderful things that help us move and have fun. Isn’t that amazing?
