Who’s ready to go to space?
Take your kids on a virtual field trip this weekend to the International Space Station! Check out these ideas for learning about space, the ISS and gravity:
Story Time From Space offers kiddos the chance to hear stories read to them from real astronauts actually on the ISS. The most recent story, “Hey-Ho, To Mars We’ll Go,” was read by Astronaut Christina Koch. storytimefromspace.com
The YouTube channel SciShow Kids has a short tour of the International Space Station where you can learn what life is like in low gravity! Check it out at youtube.com/watch?v=SOCixRhRGDw.
