As such, these toys are great for science fairs and rainy day projects! For more planet crafts for kids, why not have a look at our Papier-Mache Planets activity. Papier-mache is fantastic fun for kids due to the hands-on, messy nature of it! It’s also a great way to reduce, reuse and recycle as you can use bits of old newspaper, redundant worksheets and paper cut-offs to create your planets.

Indeed the direction the north pole points changes by 1 degree every 72 years (it's called precession), and completes a whole circle about every 26,000 years. This means that although the stars (mainly) stay in the same place, the solstices and equinoxes (which are defined by the movement of the Sun with respect to the Earth's axis) change by 1 degree every 72 years with respect to the stars. And because the position of the zodiac is defined by the equinoxes, it also rotates by 1 degree every 72 years with respect to the stars.

Whether you use it as a funky piece of lighting or as an educational tool the Solar System Mobile will not dissapoint. Printable space games for kids and printable mazes are the perfect way to entertain your science-loving kids during a road trip.

Crocodile Creek makes high-quality soccer balls that come in 5 different designs: solar system, unicorn, hedgehog, dinosaur and jungle jamboree. If you want to enhance your kids’ learning experience, you can choose the solar system design. On one disc of each planet cut a thin slit from the bottom edge to the middle, then on the other cut from the top to the middle and slot them together, using a small dot of glue to secure them. Cut the middle 9.5cm out of Saturn’s rings then cut small notches out of the middle edges of Saturn and push the rings into them. Each Solar System body is uniquely beautiful and it’s worth taking the time to reproduce their features as well as you can. This game contains flashing lights that may make it unsuitable for people with photosensitive epilepsy or other photosensitive conditions. Player discretion is advised.Children can be given the choice of medium to colour their planets in, such as paints, crayons and coloured sand etc. By combining art with other subjects like science, children are more likely to retain knowledge learnt in the activity because of its visual aspect. Art is also important in fostering creative expression and imaginative ideas. It’s also a great facilitator of communication through sharing ideas, as well as developing critical thinking and the ability to interpret the world around us. Mars - named after the Roman god of war, it is also sometimes referred to as the "Red Planet". It is the second-smallest planet in our solar system.
