Moon Cards

The moon orbits the earth in less than 27 days. There are 13 lunar cycles during the earth's solar year. The moon changes each night depending how much light it is reflecting from the sun. It's like watching a mirror reflecting sunlight.

Here are some cards of the basic lunar cycles. Glue the template on cardboard for your child to use as a matching game. Also, you can use these printouts as 3 part cards .
