Our five year old grandson and his mother are having a great time with this wonderful educational talking globe. It has kept his attention and he has so many questions. Recommended.

I have this globe in my first grade classroom. It is a little above their heads, but creates a great challenge for those who are looking to learn more about the earth and the world we live in. I purchased one off of amazon because one of my students asked for it for Christmas in 2009. His parents asked me to help them find one and I could get free two day shipping so I purchased it for them. It was shipped on time and arrived in great condition.
My students use mine on a daily basis and have for about 4 years now. It still works very well. I do have headphones to go with mine and the power cord. I would recommend getting the power cord if you plan on using it a lot! The family I purchased it for just bought batteries for now. They have been very happy with it and are very impressed with what their child learned from it in my classroom. He has been very excited since he received it and plays with it daily at home. His older brother even likes it and plays with it (he's in 4th grade).
This globe offers many activities and exploring modes for the kids so they don't get bored easily with this toy. It helps the students locate different places on the globe and learn about those far away places.

The GeoSafari Talking Globe Jr. is an exceptional learning too. It is an for 8 years and above children. The globe teaches the children about different countries, culture, songs plus much more. It is the best item I every bought for my Grandchildren.
Great concept August 12, 2010
Happy Mom
I have been impressed with the design of this educational globe. The pictures and colored outlines of continents, countries or provinces is brilliant in the their use of giving hints for the child as they learn. This is a fantastic toy for beginning learners in geography; my sons are 10 and 7 and enjoy it greatly. So do I!

My daughter recieved this globe for her 6th birthday. She was so excited, but was very discouraged when she discovered she could not really learn about the continents etc. The globe requires you to read the names of the states, oceans etc. She is a new reader and cannot read the small print on the globe. She was really hoping to point to a place and the globe would teach her about it. This globe asks you questions about a location and you need to find it. She walked away after 15 minutes and has not returned in 10 days. It is being returned.
