Constellation Cards

Learn to recognize star patterns in the night sky with this set of constellation cards. Each translucent card is made from durable, tear-resistant material, and die-cut with astronomically correct constellations. Place the cards in front of a bright window or other light source to see the constellations glow as they do in the sky! Every card is beautifully illustrated with unique images that represent the wonderfully mysterious constellations of both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. The guide includes a brief description of each constellation, and its corresponding hemisphere. Take advantage of this opportunity to introduce, or accompany, lessons on astronomy, Greek and Roman mythology, world history and the early explorers of the globe.
