The Solar System for Kids Resource Review

Have your kids been bitten by the space bug?  I can say that at least one of my kiddos is trying to save for space camp this year!

My hubs is a space fanatic.  We are part of the Challenger generation.  We were in elementary during both the search for the teacher to go into space and the horrible explosion that would prevent it from happening.  As a result, the excitement around the space program decreased. The Challenger explosion changed people’s perception of the space program, but not forever.

Enter the Total Eclipse in North America this Year.

I have given you my lack of space background as well as how I prepared for the eclipse and a resource list to help you prepare, but if your kids are anything like mine they still want to know more.  Enter more space studies.

I have a few things ready for you on moon phases, rotational models, and eclipse specific resources. Since this is not my area of expertise I was thrilled when I was contacted by someone that has an amazing resource.  She has an entire unit study on the solar system for kids.
