About 4 weeks ago RJ checked out this book at out library on the Solar System. He was really interested in the names of the 9 planets so we decided to try and make a physical representation of the planets so he could understand a little better. Like I said, this was 4 weeks ago. I finally sat down and we did a project together today. Why do things take me so long sometimes??? Anyhow, we read about the planets, their positions in relation to the sun, names, etc, etc. and then cut out the sun and the 9 planets. I got RJ some kiddie scissors and he enjoyed working and doing things himself. Then we pasted them on to a big black page to represent space. It was fun. I tried to make up a little song using the names of the planets so he could remember them easier but it didn't work. The only one he can remember and say off the top of his head is Jupiter. He thinks we live on Jupiter too. :) I just have to laugh sometimes. :)
