Planet Party!



We celebrated the end of our astronomy unit with a planet party!  I let the kids do most of the planning and preparation, so it was fun to see their creativity run wild.  They made planets, stars, and other space objects out of paper and pipe cleaners and hung them from the dining room and living room ceilings.  One of my favorites was Brennan's Sputnik 1 and Sputnik 2, complete with a dog sticker representing "Laika", the first dog in space.

Each of the kids invited a friend over.  Kyler invited Thomas from church, Ella invited Sophia from preschool, and Brennan invited Judah from co-op.  They had a blast decorating planet cookies and making space-themed crafts.  We'll definitely do something like this again!
