PhotographerJan PinkhamLocationLaffayette, CaDateApril 2007EquipmentDisposableDescriptionMy preschool class of 3 and 4 year olds. We have been studying our Solar System and we were given some old copies of your magazine. We made a collage of pictures from the mags. My husband thought it a sacrilege to cut them up. Even tho we talked about Pluto as being a minor planet, it was the favorite of many kids followed closely by Jupiter and Earth. Thanks Jan Pinkham |
