Sun Power
Plants use the Sun’s light to make food through photosynthesis. Without sunlight, plants can’t cook up their meals!
Most photosynthesis happens in leaves. Inside are tiny green helpers called chlorophyll that catch sunlight like solar panels.

Happy Solstice, Hippies
The amount of sunlight changes with the seasons, and plants know it! That’s how some plants know when to flower or rest.

Color Catchers
Chlorophyll (the green pigment in leaves) is what helps plants catch sunlight. That’s why most plants look green!

Planet Power
Photosynthesis keeps Earth alive: it feeds plants, feeds us, and keeps our air fresh. 🌍💚
