Constellation Templates For Kids
16 Constellations
Constellations were formed by looking at stars in the night sky and, "Drawing," lines between them to make shapes and images. Having kids use these worksheets to trace famous constellations is both a stellar way to learn about constellations and develop their fine motor skills.
This way they can learn about space in the comfort of their own home and not have to go sit outside under the stars (unless they want to sometime for fun!
