Here’s another space themed printable – 8 awesome planet flashcards with facts.
I’m a big fan of learning about space – there’s just so much we don’t yet know, and I know a lot of children love the mystery of it all too – there’s just soooo much we still have to discover!
The facts for the cards were gathered from NASA and you can find more info here and here.
If you want to put the planets in order starting with the closest to the sun, the order is: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
And if you want to do even more research, so that you can teach them more about our part of the universe, NASA have another awesome site, with a great map of the Solar System, 3D planets they can move around, and some more super facts!
