Daily Discovery: Storytime in the Home – A Moon of My Own Paper Craft
Follow along with FCMoD’s live stream Storytime in the Home: A Moon of My Own. Then gather your supplies to make a beautiful nighttime scene!
Supplies:
- Black, Blue, and White Construction paper
- Glue stick
- Black Crayon
- Scissors
Instructions:
- Place all your supplies on a clear surface with plenty of room to work.
- Use your black crayon to draw a moon shape. What phase is your moon in? Is it a full moon, half moon, or crescent moon? Can you draw some craters?
- Glue your moon onto your blue construction paper.
- Cut out a nighttime scene with the black construction paper! Can you think of a time you played outside at night? What did you see? Buildings, trees, mountains? What will your nighttime scene be?
- Share your creations with us on social media using #dailydiscovery or tagging us! We can’t wait to see the moon you made!
