Sarah,

Your idea of

We could explore the planets here in more detail and after this study we would then decide which planet would best suit their alien.

seems to be a perfect way to link science content (facts about the planet) to the created alien and access some pretty high order thinking skills! The child who can say – Venus is really hot with acid rain, so the alien with the thick skin will do best because their skin will protect them (like a hippo) is doing brilliantly.
