Week 5
You've ventured on space and astronomy camp activities and reached the final week of Cosmoto! Have fun exploring the activities below with your child. You will need to print out the cutout sheets below to assemble the projects. Be sure to supervise your child as he/she is completing the activity. In recognition of your child's space work and for embarking on a quest to learn more about space, a fillable certificate of achievement is available to all campers on Cosmoto's "Certificate" Site page under the Online Camp tab.
