Learn what coniferous trees are, why they are called cone-bearing trees, and how they grow seeds inside their cones in a simple way for 7-year-old kids.
Hi there! Let's talk about coniferous trees, which are also called cone-bearing trees. These trees are special because instead of making flowers like many other trees, they make something called cones.
Cones are like little containers that hold the tree's seeds. The seeds are very important because they help new trees grow. When the cones open up, the seeds can fall out and start growing into new trees.
So, in short:
Some common examples of coniferous trees are pine trees and fir trees. They have green needles instead of leaves like other trees.
Isn't it cool how trees use cones to grow new trees?
