Welcome to another wonderful Playful Preschool!
This weeks theme is: SPACE
Remember to check the bottom of this post for more space learning ideas and follow #playfulpreschool on social media!
Today’s activity is super fun! We made our very own space books!
Grab your supplies!
- 2 black cardstock sheets
- various color sheets for inside
- Star stickers
- Glitter pens or a white crayon
- Staplers, scissors, glue stick
Fold your 2 black sheets in half and staple them together to form a booklet.
Design your front cover to say “my space book” add your name to make it extra special!
In side make some lovely spacey art! You can make a page for the earth, sun, moon, stars, planets, rocket ship or an astronaut!
Write the name of your page at the top or bottom of the page.
The kids had a blast with my glitter pens and a glue stick!
Embellish your space items to bring life to them!
This is what our inside book looks like.

Cerys says
That looks a fantastic idea I think I’ll be making one with the kids – my elementary age child can extend on it whilst my preschooler can start to write. Thank you
