Pigs in Space

The best laid plans...

For Pigs in Space week we had great plans that fell short. I blame it on Cub Scout Camp - also a great, time-consuming adventure.

So, here are my ideas for last week's theme. Great ideas and pictures that we'll get to... eventually...

Craft Ideas:

• Moon phases painting project from DLTK
• Space book from an idea found here
• glow dough from a recipe found here

Sensory Boxes:

• moon sand - Mix 8 cups of AP flour with 1 cup of baby oil
• pea gravel and black beans

Food:

• Moon Rocks
• Moon Cake
• Ultimate Star Wars Feast
