6 Exciting Activities By Using International Day Of Human Space Flight Coloring Pages

The vast outer space has many exciting things for children to explore. Use the coloring pages below to tap into your children’s interest and curiosity with craft ideas.

These activities help children of all ages relax and promote creativity, education, and space exploration awareness.

Create A Space Model

This project is fun and creative to celebrate the International Day of Human Space Flight. First, you’ll choose your favorite coloring pages featuring scenes from space, planets, and spaceships.

Then, print all the scenes onto quality paper. You will let your child color all the images with markers and watercolors. Cut out the details from the coloring page using scissors.

The next step is to get the vinyl and decide how to model your space. You can arrange the details on the disc to create a space like outer space like the image below. Consider adding other decorative elements such as stars, nebulae, or galaxies.

Color the disc background black to highlight other details in the outer space. Once the model is dry, you can display it proudly in your home, classroom, or anywhere.

Design A Bookmark

This project combines the excitement of space exploration with a fun reading experience. What is necessary to prepare is cardboard, popsicle sticks, and coloring tools. You will print space-themed coloring pages onto cardboard.

After coloring, use scissors to cut out the details along the contour. You can create traditional rectangular bookmarks or leave the outlines intact using different shapes like stars, rockets, and galaxies.

The next step is to apply a layer of glue behind each cutout and stick the ice cream stick on. Once the glue is completely dry, the space-themed bookmark is ready for you to use. Put it in your or your child’s favorite book to increase the sense of stimulation each time you read it.

Decorate A Birthday Card

Any child is curious about outer space. A birthday card with this theme will make them highly excited. All of our coloring pages can be used to decorate cards.

Look for designs that feature rockets, astronauts, stars, spaceships or other space-related elements. Then, print the coloring page onto thick paper and cut it to fit the greeting card.

If you like, you can color the images before cutting them out or leave them plain for the recipient to color themselves. Glue the cutouts onto a blank card. You can write birthday wishes right on the card.

Finally, your space-themed birthday card is ready to send to your baby boy or girl. They will be extremely excited with this unique gift.

Make A Wall Mural

You can transform any space into a vibrant and inspiring environment. With space-themed coloring pages, it’s not difficult to do this. As with other craft ideas, you must print the coloring pages on high-quality paper and enlarge them to a size larger than an A4 sheet.

Use scissors to cut out space-themed elements from the coloring page. You should decide on the mural’s composition, such as a rocket launch scene or an astronaut floating in space like the illustration below.

Use tape to stick the details to the wall and color them with watercolor paint or markers. Color the background to make the space scene come alive. Step back and admire the space-themed mural. This mural will inspire kids whether in the classroom, living room, or bedroom.

Create A Glow-in-the-Dark Picture

With extremely simple steps, you will turn a simple coloring picture into a beautiful shine in a dark space. First, print our space-themed coloring pages onto standard printer paper.

The essential thing about this idea is the use of luminous paint. You can paint different colors to increase the depth and variety of the painting.

After the paint dries, hold the painting under a bright light source for a few minutes to charge. Now turn off the lights and see how your space-themed art comes to life in the dark! If you want to hang it on the wall, use tape or frame it to make it look more luxurious.

Make Stickers

Small and cute stickers will make your items unique and special. This idea is especially suitable for children who love to explore outer space. First of all, you need to print your favorite images from the collection of coloring sheets celebrating the International Day of Human Space Flight.

Adjust the size of the image to fit the sticker before printing. Once the image is printed, scissors cut each sticker along the outline. To increase durability, you can laminate them with a plastic laminator to protect the stickers from water damage or fading.

Finally, peel off the backing of each sticker to reveal the adhesive side. Now, stick them on your computer, notebook, water bottle, or anywhere else to make your items memorable.

When children complete International Day of Human Space Day Flight coloring pages with different creative ideas, they will feel proud of themselves and gain more motivation to learn.

Parents and teachers can color with children and talk about space-related topics to bring understanding and connection. That is also our goal when creating different collections, not just simple coloring.
