Astronaut's Helmet
We used a paper grocery bag, a paper plate with the center cut out, glue plate onto bag, cut hole in paper bag, cut bag to desired height.
Astronaut's Jet Pack
Turn cereal box inside out, cut off top or bottom of box, glue two toilet paper tubes inside, poke holes at top and bottom of each side, insert string/yarn, and tie.
Binoculars
We had bought these binoculars at one of the dollar stores. Instead of using real binoculars you can always glue two toilet paper tubes together and add string/yarn.
Craft
We used black construction paper, a paper plate with the center carefully cut out, the center of the plate for the face, crayons, googly eyes, glue, and star stickers.
