Hey guys! I am the planet Earth. I am going to take you on a journey throughout the Solar System. Hold on tight it will be a long one.

First, we will visit the biggest and brightest star there is. Can you guess who it is?

It's the Sun! The sun is very hot. The Sun provides our planet with light. It is in the center of all the planets. Oh dear, I feel hot here let's get out of here.

Hey Guys!

Now it is time to start with our planets. This planet is the smallest planet there is. Can you guess who it is?

Hey guys. Can you see me?

It's Mercury. It is the closest planet to the Sun. It takes the shortest time to orbit around the Sun.

The next planet we will see is a planet that shines almost as bright as the Moon. Can you guess who it is?

That's right! It's the planet, Venus. Venus is the second closest planet to the sun. Did you know that Venus is actually hotter than Mercury?

Well see you later Venus!

Hey guys! Have fun on your journey!

The third planet has a special place in my heart. It is the planet you live in. Can you guess who it is?

You guess it right it is me Earth! I am the third closest planet to the Sun. I am the only planet that people can survive in.

Before we visit the next planet I want to show you a special friend of mine. He orbits around me and you can see him at night and sometimes during the day. Can you guess who it is?

You're correct. It's the Moon. I have my own special Moon that goes around me. He and I are best friends. Even though he is many miles away from me

Next, we will visit my next-door neighbor. Sometimes it is called the red planet. Do you know who it is?

You guess it. It's my friend Mars. Mars is the fourth closest planet to the Sun. It is red because of the material it is made of. Well, see you later!
