“Adventures in Space" song by Greg & Steve to act out being astronauts * Note - This is a great song to finish the show. The smaller children love it since the song requires them to get out of their seats and move around acting as if they were in space. You will need a large area for them to move.     http://www.allegro-music.com/gregsteve.asp

“MusicSpace” celebrates music that is written for space exploration. Or is about space exploration. Or is played in space. Or makes you feel like you are in space. Or is actually from space.    http://www.hobbyspace.com/Music/index.html#NASAMusic
