Planets Song
Children will learn the names and order of the eight planets in the solar system while exploring their unique characteristics. Through song and repetition, they become familiar with facts about each planet, helping build early astronomy knowledge and an understanding of our solar system.
Planets spinning, round and round,
Eight together round the Sun.
Round and round, they never stop,
Every planet’s full of fun!
Chorus
Mercury, Venus,
Earth, Mars,
Jupiter, Saturn,
Uranus and Neptune,
Mercury, the closest to the Sun,
Speeding ‘round, the fastest one!
Venus spins backwards, really slow,
Hottest planet with lots of clouds.
Earth has life, both big and small,
Oceans deep and mountains tall.
Mars is red from iron and dust,
Home to the volcano, Olympus Mons.
Chorus
Mercury, Venus,
Earth, Mars,
Jupiter, Saturn,
Uranus and Neptune
Jupiter is the largest one,
With the Great Red Spot, a big big storm.
Saturn’s rings are made of ice,
It has many moons, Titan is one!
Uranus spins sideways, cold and blue,
Like a freezing ball, coming at you!
Neptune is farthest from the sun!
Winds go fast, so hold on tight!
Chorus
Mercury, Venus,
Earth, Mars,
Jupiter, Saturn,
Uranus and Neptune
