Children's Corner

The ancient Greeks looked at the night sky and found patterns in the stars that we call constellations. They saw birds, bears and chariots in the stars. What do you see in the following constellations? Draw and color your own constellation.


(Parents: Feel free to print out these worksheets, and submit your kids' work, along with their name, age and location, and we will showcase these during the Children's Corner activity on Wednesday!)
