Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.

Glitter Glue— WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD—Small parts. Not for children under 3 years. Not for use on skin.

The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) named the world's first space-based optical telescope after astronomer Edwin P. Hubble (1889–1953). The Hubble Telescope is nearly the size of a large school bus—and it still fit inside a Space Shuttle cargo bay!
