Shoot for the stars, honor the heroes, and spark students' minds by tying these two National Days with Fitness Finder's mission and tokens.
Why only learn about space for one day when you can create a Space Week! National Space Day is celebrated on May 3 and National Astronaut Day is celebrated on May 5 making it a perfect opportunity to fuel your students’ curiosity, imagination - and movement! This space-themed celebration isn’t just about stars and spaceships. It’s about inspiring kids to dream big, stay active, and work toward their goals - exactly what we’re all about at Fitness Finders.
At Fitness Finders, we believe learning and fitness go hand in hand. That’s why we’ve created a galaxy of space-themed tokens and awards to help educators celebrate while promoting positive habits.
Why Bring Space Into The Classroom?
Kids are naturally fascinated by space. From rocket ships and planets to real-life astronauts, space offers the perfect theme to inspire big dreams and healthy habits. These national days highlight science, discovery, perseverance, and teamwork - all values we love at Fitness Finders!
How to Make it Fun and Active:
Moonwalk Movement Breaks
Have students try “zero gravity” walking during transitions or recess.
Mission Possible Teamwork Edition
Create challenges that require students to work together to complete “missions,” reinforcing cooperation and leadership.
Space Race Step Challenge
Track steps or laps to “travel across the solar system.” Award tokens for reaching each new planet.
Astronaut Training Stations
Set up obstacle courses or classroom workouts that mimic astronaut prep - agility drills, “gravity jumps,” or core-strength circuits.
Launch a Kindness Mission
Have students complete kind deeds to earn their way through the solar system.
Classroom Inspiration Station
Share astronaut bios quotes or videos. Let students reflect on what traits they admire in space explorers - and how they can develop those traits themselves.

Make It Memorable With Space-Themed Tokens
