Uranus is the planet that rolls around the Sun on its side. Something tipped it over long ago, so its thin rings stand almost straight up and down, as on this page. It is an ice giant, a cold planet made mostly of water, methane and ammonia ices, and the methane gas in its air makes it look pale blue-green. Color it in soft blues and greens.
