A Kid's Guide to Flowers and Plant Parts
A kid friendly overview of how plants grow from seeds, with roots anchoring and feeding the plant, and flowers producing seeds through pollen reaching the pistil. It notes separate male and female parts in some plants, giving hollies as an example needing both sexes for red berries.
Flower parts and their roles in reproduction
The petals attract insects for pollination while the calyx protects the flower’s inner parts. Stamens produce pollen and the pistil houses the female organs. Seeds are formed after fertilization.
