SOLAR SYSTEM MODEL FOR KIDS

Here is how to recreate this simple solar system model:

1) Print the free hi-res jpg on cardstock with a color printer (click here for the planets and the arms);

2) Cut out the planets and the arms;

3) With a pointy knife or the tip of the scissors make a hole in the center of the sun and on one end of the arms; if you want you can also make a hole on the other hand of the arms and in the center of every single planet, but this is optional;

4) Place a metal brad in the middle of the sun and connect all the arms to it before opening it;

5) Place the planets at the end of every arm with tape, or with their own brad if you made the holes for it in step 3;

Enjoy!
