How to make a craft rocket
Some time ago, we made a craft for the Day of Cosmonautics. It was, in my opinion, very informative, but at the same time, it had many small details that are difficult to cope with for a child under 4 years. Photos below show how to make a craft rocket, which is much simpler, but no less interesting. The rocket is flying to the moon, searching for life and new spaces, and the child is joining a trip.
You will need:
Paints and brushes
Millet (as an option, semolina, fine sand or something else)
I proposed children to draw different space objects – stars, meteors, comets.
Encircling the circumference of any round object (a glass), making the moon. It is well known that the moon is covered with huge craters, that formed as a result of a collision with celestial bodies, which were later flooded by the liquid lava. If at night in clear weather you will look at the full moon, you can see it’s diversity.
My children and I have tried to show it with millet, glued and sprinkled with cereal.
Using simple geometric shapes – triangle sand rectangles, we formed the rocket body.
Glue the rocket that rushes toward the moon.
Our space crafts.
My kids like, when their work are hung in a prominent place, like on the show! There is a reason for pride!
