Tips for coloring Construction Vehicle

• Color the excavator's arm and bucket a shade darker than the body so the moving parts stand out.
• Draw dirt and gravel with brown and gray dots, and leave the road behind the roller smooth and dark gray.
• Add orange cones, striped barriers or a hard hat in the background to turn each page into a busy work site.

Fun facts about Construction Vehicle

• An excavator's cab and arm sit on a turntable, so the machine can spin all the way around without moving its tracks.
• Many excavators and bulldozers ride on metal tracks instead of wheels, which spreads their weight so they do not sink in mud.
• A road roller is heavy on purpose: its smooth steel drums press gravel and fresh asphalt into a flat, solid surface.

Fun ways to use your printables

• Fill a tray with sand or dried beans as a play building site and match each toy machine to its coloring page.
• Watch a real construction site from a safe spot and point out which machines from the pages are at work.
• Put the pages in the order the machines would work: dig with the excavator, haul with the dump truck, pour, then roll.
