These will come in handy if you happen to be outside enjoying the night sky on a clear night.  The planets and stars are even more exciting if you have the chance to visit an observatory.  Last summer we spent the day at the McDonald Observatory near Ft. Davis, Texas. The Observatory offers different programs during the day and night to delight all age groups.  The Star Party after dark was my favorite.  It was nothing short of out of this world! Here are some riddles to take along with you as you marvel at the night sky. 

1. What planet is like a circus?
2. Which planet tells the temperature?
3. Which planet sings a song?
4. Which planet can we see best without a telescope?
5. Why did the moon stop eating?

​
Answers:
1. Saturn- it has rings.
2. Mercury
3. Nep-tune
4. Earth
5. Because it was full.
