What ages is this for?

It is made for ages 4 to 7, as printed on the cover. Every activity uses simple words and friendly pictures, with plenty to cut, trace, and color.

What will my child do?

Your child will cut, build, trace, and match through space activities, from a labeled solar system map to spinning planet and moon wheels. It is screen-free play that helps early learning.

Yes, printing is recommended. Many pages are cut-and-build activities, so print at home on regular paper. A little glue, crayons, and a paper fastener for the wheels are all you need.

Do I need to help set it up?

A grown-up helps with the scissors and the paper fastener for the wheels. After that, your child can trace, match, and play at their own pace.
