5 out of 5 stars Great learning for the whole family!   June 30, 2007

We have this inetractive toy in the space and United States version. This one seems to have the widest age appeal. My four year old just mimics the facts she hears the toy say, my eight year old has learned somebsic interesting fatcts about the world and even us adults have been surprised at what we did and didn't know.
The toy has a map of the world and you can play in several modes. You can choose to hear facts about the different contintents and countries or be quized.
This is a great fun way to learn geography and facts about other countries.
I recommend this around the world over the space model.

This is so far a fun toy for my son who loves learning about the world. He plays with it often and we all have learned things.

3 out of 5 stars not a hit at my house   January 4, 2010

This was a gift for my 8 year old son. He loves non-fiction and learning about science and recently began drawing maps of the world. Naturally, I thought this would be a great fit for him. Unfortunately, it hasn't caught his attention and I'm not sure why. I can tell you that in the game mode he was stymied by the questions: such as "which country has an area of 4 million square miles?" - Australia. It might have worked better if it had offered some suggestions: Australia, Russia or Canada. Rather than pondering a map of the world and its many many countries. And then in a series of facts/questions he was asked/told this particular question three times in slightly different versions. So for now, I can't give it a great review. He hasn't touched it since that first time testing it out. If I later discover him enjoying it like the other reviews here I will certainly jump back on amazon and amend this review. I do think this could be a great toy for a child, but I guess I want to make sure others know it's not a sure thing.


3 out of 5 stars Good facts, old technology   January 14, 2010
Julia Childs
This was a X-mas gift for a 4 year old. Not much to hold his attention. No lights or interaction besides pressing the buttons. He enjoys pressing the buttons, but you get the same info everytime. No variation in information presented. Each country is delivered in the same voice, in the same rythem, the same intonation. Only thing that changes is the numbers and names. Sounds like listening to the automated customer help voice.

He has picked up some of the information about various countries, but it just doesn't hold his attention.

Probably better suited for someone who has the patience to sit and listen.
