Fè yon kanpe de twa fwa pa jou ak timoun ou pou gade ki kote solèy la ye nan syèl la. Pale de kijan solèy la bouje nan syèl la lè maten, lè apremidi, rive jiske lannuit. Pale de kijan kantite limyè ak lonbraj ki genyen ka chanje pandan jounen an.
Pause with your child a few times each day to observe where the sun is in the sky. Talk about how the sun moves from morning through the afternoon and into the night. Talk about how the amount of light and shadow can change throughout the day.
