Star Seekers Constellation Map Activity Kit

Everyone is absolutely fascinated with the wonder of the night sky. In the unimaginably huge universe, we have the opportunity on any clear night to catch a glimpse of a little corner that makes up our galaxy. The underlying premise behind navigating our night sky is recognizing some of the 88 constellations above us. Our exclusive Star Seekers Activity Kit teaches kids to recognize and locate key constellations and increase their knowledge of the types of objects in the night sky. Kids get to make and take home their own Star Finder (similar to those used by the experts), which they can use to locate constellations in the night sky.

Ages 8 and up.
