Awesome Facts About Space is another fabulous resource to help us point our kids to the creative God who spoke it into being.
Here are just a few reasons you and your kids will love this book!
Vivid, gorgeous photographs. The photographs in Awesome Facts About Space brings those distant stars, meteors, and planets close up so they can see the details. You'll find historical photos from the time of the space race and beyond and astronauts in their element.
Fascinating facts. With the internet, it's easy to find random facts about space. But this book is different. Your children will learn definitions, interesting "trivia" type information, educational facts, and comparisons to help them understand the concepts—all organized in chapters focusing on a different aspect of space.
Eye catching design. The design of Awesome Facts About Space, with it's bright colors, use of fonts and other design elements, make this a visually appealing book to both kids and adults. We don't often think about how important the elements of design really are! They can help children learn by capturing their attention, highlighting information, and acting as a visual organizer. Intentional design enhances the learning process—especially for today's kids.
A flexible resource. This book can be used in so many ways in your homeschool. We love the idea of strewing books around the house so children will see them and pick them up on their own initiative. Or you can use it along with a unit about space in your science curriculum. Add this for a Christian worldview alongside a variety of videos on planets, stars, NASA, and more. There's even a glossary of terms at the end.
And of course our favorite way to use this book is alongside some star gazing with you!
Reminders of Who created it all. Above all, Awesome Facts About Space encourages our kids faith in an infinitely creative God. Throughout the book your children will be pointed to the Creator.
