    Printable Eclipse Craft

    Start by printing out our eclipse template on cardstock paper. This template will serve as the base for your eclipse craft. Next, carefully cut out the circle shapes from the template. You will need two circles – one large and one small.

    Once you have your circles cut out, take the black paper and cut two strips to create the eclipse effect. Glue the strips onto the larger circle, leaving a small gap in between to represent the sun’s corona. Then, glue the smaller circle on top of the larger one, slightly off-center to mimic the eclipse.

    For the finishing touch, cut out small yellow triangles from the yellow paper and glue them around the edges of the smaller circle to represent the sun’s rays. Your printable eclipse craft is now complete!

    This craft not only allows kids to get creative with their hands, but it also teaches them about the science behind a solar eclipse. They can learn about the alignment of the sun, moon, and earth, as well as the different phases of a solar eclipse. Plus, they get to proudly display their masterpiece for all to see!

    So, the next time there’s a solar eclipse, your kids will be prepared with their very own printable eclipse craft to showcase their knowledge and creativity.

    Get started on this fun and educational craft project today and watch as your kids’ eyes light up with excitement as they create their very own eclipse masterpiece.
