Distance From the Sun

 The boys and I recently worked on a fun activity to help us visualize how far the planets are from the sun. To guide us in this activity I used this chart from the Astro Society.

What you need to do this activity is;

1. Toilet paper
2. Cards with the names of the planets (just to keep track of whats what)
3. and lots of space. 

This was a really fun activity and it gave the boys a good visual of how far the planets are from the sun and how far they are from each other.
