Celestial Treasure Hunt - This friendly, illustrated guide helps families find the constellations and bright stars that are easiest to see during each season. Use a key star group to get oriented, and this treasure hunt book helps you jump from pattern to pattern until you’ve mastered the mysteries of the night sky. Includes a special section called The Sky is Falling, on shooting stars (meteors) and the best times to see them.
Family Star Finder - Families receive the template and parts to build their own planisphere — a turning wheel that lets you show the constellations and bright stars for any day of the year and any time of day (usable in North America).
Sky Heroes Spacemat - This laminated place mat has a star chart showing the stars in the Northern Hemisphere’s night sky. Families can design their own constellations, based on the heroes they would put in the sky today. Use an erasable marker and play again and again.
Constellation Cookie Recipes - Two different cookie recipes that allow you to bake some constellations on top, and help your family munch their way toward getting to know the stars.
