Leaf Power!

Materials:

  • A few safe leaves (adult help)
  • magnifying glass
  • safety gloves
  • your observing eyes

Directions: Plants and trees use their leaves to collect sunlight and Carbon dioxide to turn into Oxygen gas and sugar! That is called Photosynthesis. Leaves have some cool features that help them absorb the sunlight and transport nutrients through them! Put on your safety gloves and ask an adult to help you when you observe each leaf.
