C was thrilled to get this out the box and tried to help me build it. I was not expecting to break a sweat building this cardboard spaceship, but it was difficult and you have to be inside it to for most of the building, which is tricky with a helpful four year old at your elbow. We did manage to finish it and it has been a huge hit this week.
We read in our space ship and have packed lots of food and prepared many pretend meals for our space mission.
We decorated the inside with stickers. She peeled all the stickers and put them on the walls and ceiling.
We colored the outside of our ship. Coloring on vertical surfaces, funny angles, and delicate pressure to get the crayon to leave a mark, but not hurt the spaceship were all required.
Then she found all the circles printed on the ship and carefully colored them in. Then we took our crayons inside and worked on drawing circles around our stickers.
