 ACTIVITIES:  Add sand to play dough to make your own moon rocks.CAKES: Outer Space Cake IdeasCLIPART: Space Shuttle (could also be used as a name tag for an activity)COLORING PAGE: Lots of different coloring pages on outer space SpaceCRAFT IDEAS: Outer Space Crafts Planetary Rock Board Some great craft ideas from Kids Craft Weekly Space Crafts, Games and Activities Take a piece of foil, about the size of a regular sheet of paper, and then put glue all over the paper. Then they glued foam multi-colored stars to the foil and then I hung the foil from the ceiling and it looked like their own constellations! (Idea by Heather)GAMES: Moon Walk - Everybody brings a pillow from home, or we borrow them from nap cots. Also need several large sheets, and few unbreakable, med. to large size objects, such as big blocks. Clear large spot on floor. Place Items on floor to represent terrain, cover with pillows & pile more randomly in area, cover with sheets. Let children take turns walking on the moon. You can talk about how it would feel to walk on the moon. Add Shoe box moon boots or big house shoes for an added touch. Take sheets of scrap paper (copy paper works best) and crumple them into balls. You will need two for each child. Explain that these are moon rocks. They are almost weightless as they would be on the moon. Divide your class into two teams. Put one team on one side of the room behind a strip of masking tape. Put the other team on the other side of the room behind another strip of masking tape. The two pieces of tape should be about 8 feet apart. Neither team is allowed to cross their tape (or their connection to the spaceship will be lost). Count down from 10 to 1. At blastoff, the children can throw moon rocks at each other. If any rocks land within reach you may pick them up and throw them again. (Idea by Wanda) Tie a cord to a hula hoop, and then to something sturdy such as a climber or pole. Dramatize the hula hoop as the "space suit" and the climber is the rocket. Go for a moon walk, but don't let the cord snap! It is the only thing keeping the astronaut from being lost in space! Turn out the lights and use a flashlight for added fun!INVITATION: Invitation (Space Theme)LESSON PLANS: Lots of printables Perfectly Preschool Space Theme Space/Solar System ThemeOTHER: Gravity Experiment How Big is the Earth? PARTY IDEAS: Let's have a party on the moon! Space PartyPUZZLES: Scrambled Solar System, June 1982, Friend Spacecraft MazeSNACK IDEAS: Fruit satellites - give each child an apple along with raisins, marshmallows, etc. and have them poke their toothpicks through the apple and place a marshmallow or raisin on the end of their toothpick....when they are through it looks like a space satellite! Make moon pizzas with English muffins - English muffins resemble the moon's surface with lots of craters. Oreo Space Rockets Slice English muffins in half, so that each person gets a half. Provide tomato sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices. You can explain to the children that the muffins have "craters" like the moon, and the pepperoni is a full moon (or a half-moon or crescent moon, if you choose to cut the pepperoni rounds in half. Have children assemble mini pizzas using the sauce, cheese, and muffins and pepperoni. Bake in hot oven and serve as a treat! Take a bagel and spread with cream cheese or peanut butter. Slice fruit/veggies (such as bananas, carrots, strawberries) and put on spread to make the windows/lights of UFO. Hard-boil eggs and place those in the center of the bagel. I used food-coloring to decorate the eggs-to add color to the snack. Use one package of instant pudding for every 3 or 4 kids. Divide the pudding mix evenly into Ziploc sandwich bags. Add enough milk to each bag to correspond to the package directions. Let the kids mush, squeeze and shake the bags until the pudding starts to get thick -- about 2 minutes. Chill it if you want or eat it right away. Just trim off one corner of the bag and suck it out like real astronauts do!STORIES: Toast from Outer SpaceWEBSITES: Amazing Space NASA's Official Website To the Moon |
