[Nicola · Rating 4 out of 5]

Miss 3 has lots of questions about the Moon. We looked at the moon phases information in the Explorers: Stars and Planets book and we watched a number of videos about the moon and solar system on You Tube. She also had fun naming all the planets in the solar system in the book. Her favourite moon videos were from the National Science Teachers Assoc. and BrainPOP UK:
