Moon with Craters Craft

 This is a fun idea I like using bubble wrap. Use the bubble wrap to paint a "cratered" surface.

Materials:

  • white construction paper or card stock
  • bubble wrap
  • gray paint and paintbrushes or rollers
  • various lids or bottle tops

Directions:

  1. Lay the bubble wrap on the table and apply gray paint on the surface.
  2. Lay a piece of paper on the bubble wrap and press all around with your hands.
  3. Peel off the paper. Dip lids into the paint and stamp various sized craters onto the surface.
  4. If desired, lightly roll a little paint over the surface for detail. Allow to dry.
  5. Trace a large paper plate on the paper and cut out your cratered Moon.
  6. Hang up with a string or display on the wall.
