First place watercolor paper under the sink and run water over it until it’s completely wet. Then use black, blue, turquoise, and magenta watercolor paint to make the galaxy background Then use an old toothbrush and white tempera paint to splatter the stars Next use an old projector to trace the profile silhouette of each student on the back of the paper. Cut it out very carefully in one piece. The galaxy needs to be painted light if it’s going to be on black paper ( not too much black) If you want it on white paper then you can use more black. Next, use positive and negative stencils of clouds with tempera paint and a sponge. Overlap them at the bottom and keep the bottom dark to separate them. If you use white paper you can make white clouds on a daytime sky with a sun in the negative space using chalk. If it’s black paper then add some stars to the black space You can also use the background paper to make a hand and put an animal or the moon or something creative in the hand!! Last, create a moon and headphones with white paper and chalk. Glue this on last. Details can be added to the sky with chalk and India ink

This craft is based upon the book Papa, Please Get the Moon for Me by Eric Carle. We began by reading the book, a lot! We re-read at least once every day that we did this craft. It was a great conversation starter about waning and waxing moons, and we even went into solar systems when one child asked me if the moon was bigger than the sun. We also touched on collage a little and how Eric Carle's pictures are all done using collage and paper. In this craft we only used collage for the moons, which the kids did collaboratively. We started by painting the sheet of paper. I gave them both green sparkly paint and blue sparkly paint and the just combined them and smeared them around as much as they wanted. I really like how the brush stokes added some twirls and lines! We then collaged a piece of paper with white tissue paper and a grey paper. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of that process. When it was dry I cut out the circles. The children then glued down the moon, stars, and ladder, which was small sized Popsicle sticks. I took pictures of the children from a ladder and added them on.
