Photosynthesis for Little Kids
Pip’s Leafy Lunch
Pip is a young bean plant growing on a sunny windowsill. Its roots take in water from the soil. Its leaves take in a gas called carbon dioxide from the air. With energy from sunlight, Pip uses water and carbon dioxide to make a sugar food inside its leaves. This is how plants make their own food. Plants do not eat food from a plate like we do: they make their own. They also release oxygen into the air. If Pip gets too little sunlight or water, it cannot make as much food and may grow slowly.

A Leaf Test Clue
Scientists can test a leaf for starch, a stored form of plant food. They add iodine solution. If starch is present, the iodine changes from orange-brown to blue-black. This test must be carried out carefully by an adult; never taste iodine or other science liquids.
