Instructions:

Lay out a coffee filter on your craft tray.
Using markers, color the coffee filter. Use a few colors, or all of them! Let your imagination run wild!
When you’re done coloring, mist the coffee filter with water until it is completely damp.
Let the coffee filter dry, then use a glue stick to mount it to a piece of black construction paper.

Don’t these look so mesmerizing when they’re done? This is such a fun activity to add to your space unit when you’re learning about planets. You could have the students make some that match the actual colors of the planets you’re learning about, or come up with their own colors and planets all by themselves!
