Planet Parade is a tour of our solar system. Children line up the eight planets in order from the Sun, then by size from smallest to biggest, learning a fact about each planet as it locks into place. It's a fun way to remember the planet order for school.

- Read the instruction: order from the Sun, or order by size.
- Tap the planet that comes first, then the next, and so on.
- Each planet shows a fact when it locks into place.
