This first idea is very simple....I used an ellison cutter (our public library has one) and did star cuts outs. Then we thought of words that ended in "ar" like star does.
Below is a picture of the display for our star unit. For this unit (stars/camping) we used Camping Day and The Night Sky from Usborne Books. The Night Sky is definitely for older kids, but it was still a good reference book. In the picture you might be able to see that there's some little strings hanging down (off a skewer stick actually--just happened to be what I had!) and I put the sun and the planets on there in order in relation to the sun.
Here's another idea. Take a paper towel tube and secure a piece of black construction paper over one end (with a rubber band). Then take a pin and poke the outline of a constellation on it. Look through it to see the constellation. It's pretty cool! :)
