All eight planets on one page, numbered in order from the Sun: 1 Mercury, 2 Venus, 3 Earth, 4 Mars, 5 Jupiter, 6 Saturn, 7 Uranus and 8 Neptune. Each one is big enough to color its stripes, spots and rings. Use the planets’ real colors, or make up your own, then cut them out for a mobile or a poster.
