HOW TO PLAY

1. Acquaintance. Discuss how in antiquity called constellations and compared them with animals, birds and mythical characters. Tell me where the names of constellations come from.

For example, I found a small passage:

Still, in the sky - the great paintings, not just a journey of points. All stars are shining, blinking, mounted and name. So mysteriously and beautifully sounds: "Unicorn constellation" ... But how did such names come from? Of course, astrologers came up with the name of individual groups of stars! Usually stars are called Latin, it is a tradition. But in each country names are transferred to their own language. The fantasy of ancient astrologers was limitless, with the help of his imagination they saw the outline of fabulous animals or brave heroes in the stellar sky. Almost every of the constellations associated some ancient legend or myth.

So, for example, there is a legend about how the constellations appeared in the sky Small and big bears. This legend narrows that the ancient Greek God Zeus took his wife a beautiful nymph Callisto. Zeus was needed to upset the beloved from the persecution of jealous ger, and he took a nymph to his sky, turning into a bear. Together with Callisto Zeus, he drew into the marsh and her favorite dog - she became a small bear.

And there is a legend about constellation Cassiopeia, Cefhea, Andromeda, Pegasus and Persea. It is believed that once a long time ago, the mythical Ethiopian king, the cefer was a wonderful Queen of Cassiopeia. One day she, being surrounded by nonreid - mythical residents of the sea, rashly boasted the unearthly beauty of his daughter Andromeda. Neread envied and complained to the Lord of the Seas Poseidon. He wrote on the shores of Ethiopia a terrible mound, which eaten people. Cefi rushed to Oracle for help, but he said that the only way out was to give Andromed. I had to donate to my beloved daughter: tie to the coastal rock and leave to expect your death. But Andromeda saved the hero of Perseus, who flew to her on the cereal horse - Pegasus. The main participants of this myth Fantasia of the ancient Greeks also placed on the sky in the form of constellations.

2. Starry sky at home. Here we have to work with constellation cards. We can try at home to see the stars and constellations. You need to pierce the holes on the site of white points on cards, turn off the light, take a flashlight and attach closer to the card. Encounter through the card to the ceiling and see one of the constellations

3. Embroide the constellation. Also, take the constellation cards and pierce. Then take the lace and offer the baby to embroider similar or its constellation

4. glue stars. You can buy in the store stickers of the stickers and ask the baby to stick them to the appropriate points at the constellation. Or make the same constellation from the stars as on the card.
