Bring the wonder of a starry sky indoors.
Most children would love to fall asleep under the gentle glow of starlight. Camping in the backyard is one option, but it's easy to bring the starlight inside. You can find plastic glow-in-the-dark stars in many discount stores. Once light activates the stars, their greenish glow lasts for several hours after dark. Your children can drift off to dreams of space travel and astronauts under their own starry sky.
Instructions
1. Cut a length of fishing wire for each star, making each piece a different length between 6 inches and 18 inches.
2. Tape one end of each wire to the back of a star.
3. Loop the free end of each wire into a small circle and fasten with a knot.
4. Determine your star pattern. Scatter the stars across the ceiling, cluster them near the bed or lay out constellations.
5. Attach the stars to the ceiling with a push pin through the fishing wire loop.
