Good Night, Moon

This season, Good Night is going to adjust our eyes to the nature, science, and most of all, the mysteries, that play in the light of the moon.

But first…

Week 1: Who is the moon?

We take a look at the native legends and myths about the creation of the world. Raven stole the light of the sky father and dropped it to the earth, making the moon and stars. Where else has the tricky raven left his mark? We head down to three native art galleries to find images and art representing the moon.

Week 2: Who has the moon inspired?

From Fiest to the Doors, Neil Young, and Frank Sinatra: We’re having a PJ dance party to all our favourite moon hits.

Week 3: Faces and phases of the Moon

Why? Plus, what the heck are moon cakes? We’re going to make some.

Week 4: What has the moon done for us lately?

The earth’s little sister has a big impact on our weather and tides, but it also protects us from meteors.

So blow a kiss to that shining orb and next time you say “good night,” thank her for making it so good.
