Here are mine and my daughters suns.

My daughter went with more orange on hers and I stuck with more of a yellow sun.

I love how everyone can mix up their colors differently to create a unique looking sun.

This fun space shuttle paper craft is a great summer craft for kids or for school to accompany a solar system unit. The space shuttle wing popping off the page gives this paper craft a fun 3D effect to it. The space shuttle craft would look great up on display on a classroom bulletin board with a blasting off theme.
