🪐 Planet Parade

Put the planets of our solar system in order – by distance from the Sun, and by size.

How to play

Read the instruction for each round (from the Sun outwards, or biggest to smallest) and tap the planets in that order. A handy memory sentence for distance: My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Nachos.

⌨️ Keyboard: press a card's number to place it next, Backspace to take the last one back.

What it teaches

Earth is one of eight planets orbiting the Sun, which the Australian Curriculum covers in Year 5 Science. Ordering by distance and by size shows that the four inner planets are small and rocky while the four outer planets are giants.

Levels: Inner & outer (Four at a time) · All eight (Distance and size) · Expert (All eight by size)
