Constellation lacing

The universe is full of miracles and secrets. Constellations are one of the most enthralling things one can see. We learned that there are 88 constellations. Some are visible to the naked eye on a clear pollution-free night ( not very common in the cities in our country ).

We made three constellations in our activity that were:

Scorpio, the big dipper, and Orion were fun.

The Scorpius constellation lies in the southern sky. It represents the scorpion and is associated with the story of Orion in Greek mythology.

While the big dipper is one of the most familiar star shapes in the northern sky, it is a useful navigation tool.

Orion is a prominent constellation located on the celestial equator and visible throughout the world. It is one of the most conspicuous and recognizable constellations in the night sky. It is named after Orion, a hunter in Greek mythology. Its brightest stars are blue-white Rigel and red Betelgeuse.

What all you would need:

Cardboard

Markers

Threads and plastic/rubber needles

Scissors

Method:

1. Grab three cardboard sheets and draw different constellations on each of them as shown in the picture. (Draw circles in the place of stars, that you would need to cut out later)

2. Now take a slim rod or pencil to cut out the circles 

3. Grab threads and hand the sheets to your kids and guide them in the direction they need to put the lace through.

Voila, now you can paint and decorate your art the way you want and frame it.
