Why Kids Love This Muddy Tractor
The tractor throws both arms in the air with a huge grin, and a rubber boot even pokes out of the mud. Splashes fly everywhere, and thick clumps of mud cling to the tires and fenders. Through the big cab windows you can see the seat and steering wheel. Trees stand on gentle hills in the back, with tufts of grass up front.

All About Tractors in the Mud
After lots of rain, farm roads and fields turn into one big mud pit. A tractor can still get around because its tires have deep lugs that dig into the ground. Big tires also spread out the weight so the tractor doesn’t sink as easily. Many tractors have four-wheel drive, which means the engine powers all four wheels. After a muddy day, farmers often hose the tractor down so the dirt doesn’t dry on.
What to Do with Your Finished Muddy Tractor
Dab real-looking mud spots onto your finished page with a sponge and some brown finger paint. Then tell a story: how does the tractor get out of the puddle, and who comes to help?
