26 of the Best Solar Eclipse Resources for Kids
Check out these solar eclipse resources to teach your kids about this pretty cool phenomenon!
The Great American Solar Eclipse is happening next week, y’all! I know some of you couldn’t care less, but this mama is excited! I can’t wait for my kids to experience this! To help them understand the solar eclipse before it happens we plan to dedicate a full homeschool day to eclipse crafts, activities, and videos.
Get Ready for The Solar Eclipse!
Saving other mamas some precious time is important to me so I compiled all of the resources that I will be using into this post to keep you from having to spend hours looking up ideas. You’re welcome—sing that like Maui…you know you want to 😉
