It is one of the easiest ways to compare for example the smallest Mercury with the largest Jupiter. Just imagine the planets as sport balls. It helps small kids to understand the difference in sizes and “touch” the planet at home. You can use ping pong ball for Mercury, baseball for Venus, tennis ball for Earth, golf ball for Mars, basketball for Jupiter, football (American, not soccer) for Saturn, Volleyball for Uranus, and soccer for Neptune. Excellent for the preschool, kindergarten or elementary school lessons. How to learn the order of the planets? Just remember: My Mercury Very Venus Educated Earth Mom Mars Just Jupiter Served Saturn Us Uranus Nachos Neptune But where is Pluto? Pluto is a dwarf planet in the Kuiper belt, a ring of bodies beyond Neptune. Pluto was discovered by Clyde Tombaugh in 1930 and was originally considered to be the ninth planet from the Sun. Pluto is very small, only about half the width of the United States, that's the main reason why Pluto was relegated to "dwarf-planet" status by the International Astronomical Union in 2006.
