Label the planets of our solar system online exercise for | Live ... - Free Printable

Let’s go step by step to identify each planet in order from the Sun.

We know the solar system has 8 planets, and they orbit the Sun in this order:

1. Mercury – closest to the Sun, small and gray.
2. Venus – next, yellowish-orange, very bright.
3. Earth – blue and green, our home planet.
4. Mars – red planet, smaller than Earth.
5. Jupiter – biggest planet, with stripes and a big red spot.
6. Saturn – has big rings around it.
7. Uranus – light blue, tilted on its side.
8. Neptune – dark blue, farthest from the Sun.

Now let’s match them to the picture, starting from the Sun and going outward:

- First planet (closest to Sun): small gray → Mercury
- Second: orange-yellow → Venus
- Third: blue-green with clouds → Earth
- Fourth: red → Mars
- Fifth: large with bands → Jupiter
- Sixth: has rings → Saturn
- Seventh: light blue, no visible rings → Uranus
- Eighth: dark blue, farthest out → Neptune

So we fill in the boxes from bottom (closest to Sun) to top (farthest):

Bottom box (first planet): Mercury
Next up: Venus
Then: Earth
Then: Mars
Then: Jupiter
Then: Saturn
Then: Uranus
Top box (last planet): Neptune

Final Answer:
From closest to farthest from the Sun:
1. Mercury
2. Venus
3. Earth
4. Mars
5. Jupiter
6. Saturn
7. Uranus
8. Neptune
