How big is the Sun compared to Earth? Why does Mars look red? How long would it take to travel to the nearest star? In this awe-inspiring session, children explore the solar system through hands-on scale models, experiments, and big questions about the universe.
Explore the universe from your workshop table — planets, orbits, and the scale of space await!
The universe is so vast that most people never truly grasp its scale. In this session, children build to scale, measure distances, and experience firsthand just how extraordinary our solar system really is.
From building a scale model of the planets to understanding why we have seasons, day and night, and different phases of the Moon — this session combines stunning facts with real hands-on activities that make space science tangible and exciting.
Did you know? If the Sun were the size of a basketball, Earth would be about the size of a sesame seed — and they would need to be 26 metres apart to be to scale!
What your child will do:
- Build a scale model of the solar system using craft materials
- Simulate day/night cycles and seasons using a torch and globe
- Explore orbital paths and understand why planets don’t fly off into space
- Investigate the surface conditions of different planets
- Use simple maths to calculate travel times in space
What your child will learn:
- Structure and scale of the solar system
- Gravity and orbital mechanics at a conceptual level
- Day/night cycles, seasons, and the Moon’s phases
- Comparative planet science: temperature, size, atmosphere
- Scale, distance, and large-number thinking
