About this word search
Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system, even though Mercury is closer to the Sun, because its thick atmosphere traps the heat. Jupiter, Saturn and Mars are on this list too, along with the Milky Way.
Gravity, Orbit and Satellite give the puzzle a science side, and Astronaut and Helmet make it about people. Satellite has a double L, and Telescope and Universe are long. This grid keeps every word reading forwards, across, down or on the diagonal.
For a solar system project, children can put the planets on the list in order from the Sun, then add the ones that are missing.
