Pluto Day

18

Feb

Pluto Day is on February 18 to remember the day when a scientist discovered Pluto, a tiny planet far, far away in our solar system. Even though Pluto is not called a "full planet" anymore, people still celebrate its discovery because it reminds us of the excitement of finding new things in space. On Pluto Day, kids and adults might learn about Pluto, watch space videos, or draw pictures of what they think Pluto looks like. It's a day to get excited about space and imagine what other cool things are out there waiting to be discovered!

How to celebrate Pluto Day?

Start your Pluto Day by drawing or painting a picture of Pluto and its moons. Create a fun Pluto-themed scavenger hunt in your backyard. Dress up as an astronaut or a space explorer, and pretend you're visiting Pluto. Watch videos or cartoons about space adventures with your family. Build a tiny model of the solar system using craft supplies, and don't forget to include Pluto. Have a Pluto-themed cake or cookies for a special snack. End the day by stargazing and imagining what it would be like to see Pluto through a telescope. Have fun exploring and imagining!
