How Do Excavators Work? - Learn About Excavators and Hydraulics for Kids

Join Lizzy the Dog at the construction site to learn all about excavators and hydraulics. Our vehicle assembly series is designed to get curious kids excited about learning how things work and inspire an early love of the STEM fields. The first section will focus on the main parts of an excavator and how they work as we assemble a big realistic excavator at the construction site in the city. Then we'll learn the engineering behind the powerful system of hydraulics employed by excavators. After that, your kids will love watching our new "virtual Lizzy the Dog" as she hops inside the excavator to show us how an excavator works. She'll show us what all of the controls do before we see the excavator in action as it digs up some big heavy rocks for the dump truck to carry away.
