High-quality materials go into the manufacture of this great educational toy. Durability is, therefore, something you can get from the puzzles. Their 3D appearance makes them form a realistic solar system. SATURN is called “the jewel of the solar system” because of its beautiful rings. Even though other planets have rings, Saturn’s rings can be seen from the eart with a small telescope. On one disc of each planet cut a thin slit from the bottom edge to the middle, then on the other cut from the top to the middle and slot them together, using a small dot of glue to secure them. Cut the middle 9.5cm out of Saturn’s rings then cut small notches out of the middle edges of Saturn and push the rings into them. Lay one across the other and bind them together tightly with cotton yarn to form a big cross. This forms the structure from which the planets will hang from.Mars - named after the Roman god of war, it is also sometimes referred to as the "Red Planet". It is the second-smallest planet in our solar system. Sign up to Twinkl today to explore thousands more colouring resources your children will love! What are some other planet crafts for kids I can use? Using markers, crayons or colored pencils, color the sun and planets.

The balls have a 7-inch diameter and are large enough for your kids to play soccer. Playing is essential for kids’ development. They activate the brain to learn by experience. So, it’s beneficial to get these balls for your kids.

Using a bodkin, make a hole and thread a piece of cotton yarn through the top of each planet and tie the ends. If the planet has an axial tilt, remember to make the hole the correct number of degrees down from the top. Venus - named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty. Second to the moon, Venus is the brightest natural object in Earth's night sky. As you may know, the Earth's axis is tilted over by 23.4 degrees and the Earth's North Pole currently points at the star known as Polaris - the North Star. The app is arranged so that the view is fixed to the stars and that Polaris is always off the top of the screen (and not shown). This means that the Earth's north pole is (currently) pointing towards the top of the screen, and the south pole towards the bottom. During the summer months of the northern hemisphere the north pole is pointing more towards the Sun and so the Earth is shown below the Sun. During the summer months of the southern hemisphere, the south pole points towards the Sun and so the Earth is shown above the Sun.
