The Moon Budding Crafters Box

Phases of the Moon Puzzle Box
Have you noticed that the moon changes shape over time? This hands-on puzzle helps children explore the different phases of the moon in a fun, engaging way. It also introduces the concept of measurement how we find out information like how long, how tall, how heavy, or how much of something there is. Through interactive play, children develop their understanding of both science and measurement in a tactile and memorable way.

Impressionist Dabbing Art
Impressionist artists loved capturing how light and colour appear at a particular moment in time. They often used lots of small brushstrokes to show how sunlight casts shadows or how moonlight reflects on surfaces. In this activity, children can explore these techniques for themselves—learning how to use dabbing to create impressionist-style artwork. They’ll also touch on expressionist art, where artists use colours and textures to show emotions and feelings in their paintings.

Eclipse Kit
Did you know that a lunar eclipse happens when the Earth moves between the sun and the moon? During this event, the Earth blocks the sunlight that normally makes the moon shine—so the moon can appear to disappear from the sky. This hands-on kit helps children understand how eclipses work by letting them explore the positions of the Earth, sun, and moon. A fun and educational introduction to space science and celestial events.
