Hi April,

My son who is 6 (almost 7) has always enjoyed the Solar system. We've
looked at books, watched videos and used balls around the house to
represent the sizes and them put them in a line in the house and had
them as far apart as they may be in space. One of the videos we watched
was from Bill Nye the Science Guy on the Solar system and he did a
version of that. He did it to scale with balls and Pluto was like a
mile away from the others. I've also draw the solar system as my son
has. We have the computer game, "The Magic School Bus Explores the
Solar System" which is excellent. There is also a video and book of the
same episode. Have Fun!
