The wheel was like magic for people back in ancient times. Before the wheel, people had to carry things on their backs or push heavy stones on logs. But when someone put a circle on top of a log and rolled it instead of pushing, everything got easier! The wheel made moving things faster and helped build bigger cities and more powerful empires.
Examples
- The wheel lets you move heavy things like a cart instead of pushing them.
- The wheel made it faster to go from one place to another, just like when you roll a toy car.
