Oh, happy little question! Venus does not actually twinkle in the night sky like some other stars do. Its light is quite steady and strong due to how close it is to Earth and how its thick atmosphere interacts with light. Isn't that just magical to think about?
Mars does not twinkle in the night sky as much as stars do, because planets are closer to Earth and appear as solid, bright discs of light. Twinkling occurs when starlight is distorted as it passes through Earth's atmosphere, but planets are large enough to not twinkle significantly.
Little Jane's eyes twinkled with excitement as her grandmother opened her present.
Light up the sky and sing: Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are! When the blazing sun is gone, When there's nothing he shines upon, Then you show your little light, Twinkle, twinkle, through the night. Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are! In the dark blue sky so deep Through my curtains often peep For you never close your eyes ’Til the morning sun does rise Twinkle, twinkle, little star How I wonder what you are Twinkle, twinkle, little star How I wonder what you are
Venus is a planet in the milky way.
Well, friend, planets generally don't twinkle like stars do because they are much closer to us and their light isn't as easily disrupted by Earth's atmosphere. Take a moment to appreciate the steady glow of planets in the night sky, each one conveying its own unique beauty to be appreciated in stillness and wonder. Keep looking up and discovering the splendid cosmic dance that surrounds us every night.
The flashing or twinkling of Venus is caused by the turbulent mixing of its thick atmosphere, which can distort the incoming light. This atmospheric turbulence can make Venus appear to change in brightness or twinkle, especially when viewed from Earth.

All stars twinkle in our sky because of turbulence in the atmosphere of the Earth. As the atmosphere churns, the light from the star is refracted in different directions. This causes the star's image to change slightly in brightness and position, and thus twinkle. The "Stars" that do not twinkle are the planets in our Solar System except for Venus. Venus twinkles for it has massive clouds that move very fast that causes the twinkle to our eyes.

Venus is visible in the night-sky for the same reason we see the moon - Sunlight is reflected off the surface.

Venus' atmosphere makes the planet bright with sun rays reflecting against it.
