It looks fantastic!!! You have a great variety of materials. Can you tell me more about your planet cards? Are they matching cards?

The planet cards are just a set I picked up at Target in their Dollar spot last year. I like them though because they have great pictures and more info on the back. You could always buy 2 and match them!

It is just us and a 10 month old I am taking care of. Little C sleeps through most of our classtime and plays in the outer rec room when he is awake!
