Craft set "Solar system model"

This kit enables children to create their own scale model of our solar system. First the 8 planets and the sun are painted using the paints included in the set. Once these are dry, just slot the pieces together and simulate the movements of the planets.

Getting children to assemble the pieces independently helps promote technical understanding and enhance fine motor skills. By engaging with the model, children are inspired to explore the topic in more detail and find out more.
