At the Museum of the Science and the Cosmos (MCC, La Laguna, Tenerife) there is a small planetarium. All the different planetarium shows are carried out entirely by the Museum staff, from the original idea and the script to the final production. In February 2007, Meteorite, a rock from space, a new show, specifically for children, was released. The characters (astronomical bodies) are played by puppets, designed and manufactured for this occasion; the script has been carefully written, and introduces many astronomical concepts in the form of an entertaining tale, which encourages the children to participate by crying, counting, helping the characters - just like a traditional puppet show. The aim of this contribution is to review the different resources (some of them really innovative) used to create this programme, which offers plenty of future possibilities.
