• Following directions - literacy and listening
• Measuring ingredients - Math; fractions and quantities
• Talking about what is an asteroid - science and comprehension
• Work with the group - social-emotional skill
• Creating galaxy - creativity and fine motor skills

Recipes and directions can be found on ChildCareED social media pages. More activity suggestions can be found in the ChildCareED Blog. Check out NASA for basic asteroid information and facts: NASA Science Space Place Asteroid Page.
