Make a Super Space Den with your little ones! 

Suggested Mission Control questions for Super Space Den Builders:

What supplies do I need? Where could we look for them?

Why do you like it? Have you got a secret password for your Den?

I wonder what would happen if you found an alien in your Space Den?

Can you tell the story of a lost space bear and what happened next?

Why not try.. 

I spy with my magic cone... something sparkly... soft... yellow... round

Reading stories together inside or setting up your space den outside.
