Head to outer space with this fun song from Eric Ode talking about how even if someone says something bad about us, we can always remember that we are okay just the way we are. To celebrate ourselves with the astronaut craft is a great way to have kids reflect on what they see and create their own self-portrait masterpiece!

Supplies Needed

• Paper plate
• Markers
• Construction paper

Directions

1. Cut a circle out of the paper plate
2. Have the child draw a self-portrait on construction paper
3. Place the drawing of themselves behind the paper plate creating an astronaut helmet

As you work on this craft, listen to Poor Planet Pluto
