Exploring Creation with Astronomy
Few subjects capture a child's imagination quite like space. Exploring Creation with Astronomy is a Christian astronomy curriculum that helps your child explore God's creation while building a solid foundation in astronomy.
Designed for grades K–6, this updated course guides your child through 14 chapters covering the solar system, stars, galaxies, black holes, space exploration, and more. Rich photography, engaging explanations, Scripture, and hands-on activities help bring complex concepts within reach of young learners.
Rather than relying solely on worksheets, your child will build models, create craters, track clouds, observe constellations, construct a simple telescope, and complete a variety of activities that reinforce key concepts. Most projects use common household materials, and an optional science kit is available for families who prefer added convenience.
The full-color Student Notebook helps organize the learning experience with daily assignments, narration prompts, notebooking pages, review questions, Scripture copywork, hands-on activities, and space for illustrations and observations. Built-in schedules and checklists make it easy for your child to stay on track while reducing planning time for parents.
Additional features include lapbook-style activities, field trip pages, and chapter reflection sections that encourage your child to engage more deeply with what he is learning.
Whether your child is fascinated by planets, curious about space travel, or simply eager to understand the universe, Exploring Creation with Astronomy provides a hands-on, Bible-based introduction to astronomy that continually points back to the Creator behind it all.

Apologia is our favorite science curriculum. We love the vibrant colors, easy to digest information, and content applicable for all children/students.

My 7th grader and I have enjoyed this curriculum. He and I have both learned about Astronomy this year. I also bought the student handbook so we could have more hands on with this curriculum. It has been great to keep his attention.

My kids love space and my oldest wants to work for NASA so this was a no brainer. The words are a bit beyond my 1st grader so I read it to her and my 3rd grader as a group and it works well. We don't do all the activities, and sometimes we supplement our own, but it has a lot of detail and really tells a lot about each planet. We're only a few lessons in but, so far, it's been great!

This is the updated version of Apologia's astronomy and it's really a lovely book, with vibrant colors and a nice notebook to go with it. The text is very readable and interesting. As usual with Apologia's books, my daughter prefers the reading to the writing exercises and the experiments. I would not have done this at their younger recommended ages, though. There's far too much reading involved, even if it's read to the child.

I really love this program
Brittany H.
In my opinion, this is a better fit for older children. While it can be used for a wide range or ages, the older children really get significantly more out of it. Great in depth resource.

We decided to add this to our children's curriculum as a second science class and they loved it. I was glad that we were able to find a course on Astronomy since it was a favorite subject of mine and it turns out it is for my children as well. The material is very informative and well organized for my children to understand. Pairing it with the Astronomy Notebooking Journal was even better with the extra learning and visuals. This is a great program!!

Thought this might be over 1st grader's heads but I was so wrong! And it's actually a great place to start with formal science because as it introduces science to the student, they aren't lacking the maturity I would want to see to make sure they are retaining information about, say, botany. The book was beautiful and engaging, and my husband and I both appreciated the approach to science- God honoring and fully open to reason.
