Plant Parts
Find the roots, stem, leaves and flowers, and learn what each one does.
Plant Parts starts with the four main parts every young gardener knows: roots, stem, leaf and flower. Children name each part from a picture and match it to its job, like taking in water or making food. The game keeps the language simple, so a kindergartner can start, and every right answer comes with a short, clear explanation.
Level 2 asks which part of the plant we eat, such as a carrot, spinach or an apple. Later levels go closer, naming the petal, sepal, stamen, pistil and ovary, and explaining how pollen reaches the seeds. The last level looks inside a leaf at the veins, layers and tiny openings that let gases move in and out.
What children practice
- Name the roots, stem, leaf and flower of a plant
- Match each plant part to its job
- Tell which part of a plant a food comes from
- Name the petal, sepal, stamen and pistil of a flower
- Explain how pollination leads to seeds and fruit
- Describe the veins, layers and stomata inside a leaf
Levels
- Level 1: Roots, stem, leaf, flower
- Level 2: Which part do we eat?
- Level 3: Parts of a flower
- Level 4: Pollination and seeds
- Level 5: Inside a leaf
How it works
- Five levels start with the four main parts and finish inside a leaf.
- Five right answers and the practice timer open the next level.
- A wrong answer says try again, so a young child can simply choose once more.
- Each prompt can be read aloud, which helps children who are still learning to read.
Best for: A good fit for Kindergarten through grade 7, from a child learning plant basics to an older student reviewing flower and leaf structure.
Tip for parents: Next time you cook, ask your child which part of the plant each vegetable is: carrot root, asparagus stem, spinach leaf. Growing herbs or beans on a windowsill makes the parts easy to see.
Questions parents ask
Can my kindergartner play Plant Parts?
Yes. Level 1 only uses the roots, stem, leaf and flower, with simple jobs, and your child can use the speaker button to hear each question. The later levels are there for when they are ready.
Does the game teach the parts of a flower?
Level 3 does. It shows a flower diagram and asks children to name the petal, sepal, stamen, pistil, anther, filament, stigma, style and ovary, and to say what each part does. It also asks which part makes pollen.
What does the leaf level cover?
Level 5 shows a cross-section of a leaf with its upper skin, palisade layer, spongy layer, veins and stomata. Questions ask what each part does, including which gas goes in or out through a stoma and what the veins carry.
