Because planets are much closer to us than stars

Hence, the amount of light which enters our eyes fluctuates from bright to faint. This is the “Twinkling effect of star”. But planets are much closer to us than stars, so they are not point-sized objects to our eye. Hence, the fluctuations have a negligible effect and they don't seem to twinkle.
