The Planets in our solar System are (in order from the sun) Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Pluto used to be included but is now classed as a dwarf planet as it is too small.
You can learn the order of these Planets by making up rhymes to help us to remember.
Here are some that we found -
