Learn how firefighters find water when their tanks are empty, including using fire hydrants and rivers.
When firefighters go to put out a fire, they need a lot of water. But what happens when their water tank gets empty? It's like when you're drinking juice from a cup and you finish it! Firefighters have some cool ways to find more water.
One way is by using a special pipe that’s like a water fountain called a fire hydrant. You can find it on the street. Firefighters connect their hoses to the fire hydrants, and then water comes rushing out to fill up their tanks again! It's very fast, like magic!
If there are no fire hydrants around, they can also get water from places like rivers or lakes. They can use a special machine to pump water from the river into their trucks. So, even when their tanks are empty, firefighters always know where to get more water to help put out fires! Isn't that neat?
