Unlike stars, planets don't twinkle. Stars are so distant that they appear as pinpoints of light in the night sky, even when viewed through a telescope. Because all the light is coming from a single point, its path is highly susceptible to atmospheric interference (i.e. their light is easily diffracted).

In simple words they are made up of chemicals and usually dust and gases which emits lights which gets diffracted when enters through a certain planets atmosphere I.e like earth!
but planets do because planets like earth are not made up of certain gases which makes them emit light
