Moon Day

Check the newspaper to find the time the moon will rise and look for it in the sky. Read toddlers or preschoolers one of the classic picture books that mention the moon like Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown or Happy Birthday Moon by Frank Asch. With preschool or school age children you can use your imagination to plan a pretend trip to the moon – make a spaceship out of a large cardboard box and space helmets from large plastic milk containers.
