Astronaut Helmet

Professor O will help you learn: Making a wearable helmet from a box teaches you why real astronauts need a sealed helmet to breathe and stay safe in space, where there is no air.

⚠️ An adult should cut the large face hole. Check the helmet fits loosely and never covers the child's nose or mouth so they can always breathe easily.

Play through the project step by step, with narration read aloud.

Make it your own: Add a foil air tube leading to a cardboard oxygen backpack so you have a full spacesuit outfit.
