Stars twinkle because their light must pass through pockets of Earth's atmosphere that vary in temperature and density, and it's all very turbulent. On rough nights, a star appears to shift position constantly as its light is refracted this way and that

Stars twinkle because they appear as tiny pinpoints as seen from Earth, even through telescopes. Planets don't twinkle because they are closer, and thus appear larger in our sky, as tiny disks instead of pinpoints.
