The Digger Digs

The digger scoops a big hole for the foundations. Its bucket grabs the soil and lifts it high. It rolls on tracks so it never sinks into the mud.

The Dump Truck Rolls

The dump truck has a huge tub on its back. The digger fills it with soil, and away it drives to tip the whole load out with a whoosh!

The Bulldozer Smooths

The bulldozer has a wide blade at the front. It pushes soil and sand, back and forth, until the ground is flat and smooth as a table.

The crane is tallest of all and peeks over the rooftops. Workers hook on bricks and planks, and up they go to just the right spot.
