That's my way of remembering the planets in our solar system. Look at the first letter of each word - they match the initials of each planet: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto.
This is an example of a magic mnemonic. That word, pronounced 'ner-mon-ik', means a memory aid, and it comes from the Greek word for 'mindful'. You can keep your mind full with mnemonics, because they are a sure way of remembering anything.
Whether you're trying to memorise facts for exams or details for an office report, always look at the initial letters. Have fun making up a silly sentence and you'll never forget what it means.
