Fun activity for eclipse viewing, or Space programs in general.
My library did the Eclipse Chalk Art project for the big eclipse in August 2017. It was a great project, because the supplies were easy to gather and could accommodate large groups of people. Since the Eclipse was largely covered with clouds by us, kids really liked making their own eclipses as a souvenir of the day.
Additionally, the attached guide was a phenomenal resource in general, not just for the eclipse, but for programming purposes in general. There are lots of good projects outlined, and explanations provided for lots of solar and lunar events.
