The Sun and Inner Planets

A solar system adventure begins at the core, so let's start with the Sun. Our Sun coloring page is a mesmerizing fusion of yellows, oranges, and reds, inviting your child to capture its fiery glory.

Pluto and the Kuiper Belt

No solar system journey is complete without visiting the farthest recognizable planet, Pluto. Once the ninth planet, Pluto was reclassified as a 'dwarf planet' in 2006. But its demotion hasn't dimmed its charm. With its blushing heart-shaped glacier and intriguing moons like Charon, Pluto remains a favorite among young space enthusiasts.

Our Pluto coloring page allows your child to lend a splash of color to this diminutive world. You might even encourage them to include the recently discovered fourth moon, named after the Greek goddess of Discord, Eris, who playfully caused mischief in the Underworld—sound like anyone we know?
