Next time it's dark, why don't you look up!

Even if we can't go into space we can still learn a lot about it from right here on the ground.

Use this pack of activities to learn all about the Solar System - let us help you explore! 

By the end of this activity you will have:

  • collected words about day and night
  • sorted objects based on what time of day they are used
  • played the day and night game
  • explored shadows
  • walked the Solar System
  • explored different planets
  • expressed ideas about planets using actions
  • used your art and design skills

To complete this activity you will need: 

  • the Solar System activity pack (you may prefer to print out the activity pack)
  • some of the activities need additional resources that are commonly found in an Early Learning environment
