Perfect for EYFS & KS1
Help commemorate 50 years since the Moon Landings with this workshop that will help ignite imaginations. It is 1969 and mankind in planning to land and walk on the Moon. But – how can we get there, and how can our bodies survive the conditions in Space?

- Try on a space suit.
- Go through tasks to help train you for travelling into Space.
- Discover how a space suit works and how ‘bodily functions’ are carried out in Space.
- Eat space food.
- Work as a team to make and launch their own rockets, powered by CO2.

- Meet Laika, the first Space Dog.
