Cheap quality ruins an awesome concept
3 out of 5 stars
Pgvla - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
Cool idea, but they didn’t bother to make sure the parts fit well. The continents fall right off if you move the globe even a little. The holes where you insert the continents are positioned where kids can’t see what they’re doing, which makes it super frustrating for younger kids. This could easily be solved with bigger shape holes or longer stems on the continents, but they clearly opted for profit over quality.
Perfect gift

Had to put all the stickers on and they did not stick. Ended up using glue. The Europe piece doesn’t snap into place and falls out.

This globe is frustrating! From placing the stickers to assembly- frustrating! The Continents do not stay in place even with the slightest turn of the globe.

Stickers are NOT precut

The product is okay, but there are close to 30 stickers for labeling and showing animals/architecture of the world that are not precut to peel and stick. You have to cut each out individually.

Honestly not impressed with this globe. I purchased this in hopes of entertaining my child and introducing the world to him, however the pieces continuously fall out and wont stay in place. Also for the price, I expected the stickers and labels to already be attached to the pieces.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this globe! We have been using it to introduce the basic layout of earth and continents to our kindergartener.
My issue was shipping information.

Well made sturdy student globe is age appropriate. It shows students the continents and major bodies of waters and allows them to locate and label.

My son has loved having daddy show him where he travels for work! My husband travels frequently for work so this has been a great addition to our home. I like that it is durable and can withstand my preschooler playing with it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a cute little globe that helps foster an understanding of the world around us. I like to pair this globe with a USA floor puzzle, a state map and books on the solar system. This allows kids to see how we fit into the world around us from local to global and beyond. This globe is a great starter for kids as it isn't overwhelming and only focuses on the continents. Kids can see and compare the sizes of continents, where each one is in relation to one another as well as give them a little information about the animals found on that continent. I love how kids can also self check the name of each continent by matching the color of the name to the color of the continent.
Cute idea

This is a cute globe but when we took it out of the box the stickers were peeling off on some of the continents. Other stickers were not put on correctly and were crooked. My son enjoys playing with the globe and is it excited to find where the continents go. It is a good way to communicate about geography with little kids!
Great but....

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product as part of the incentive review program. The box fell apart very easily but the way the puzzle is displayed in the box is visually appealing. The globe is fun and the continents are a great way to teach kids about geography. My son was bored with it after one use. I think it would be more fun if the pieces also had detachable animals and places as a way to make learning about the continents more interactive for him, versus the parents simply reading off of the included packaging.
I would recommend this product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My three y/o son and our whole family really enjoyed playing with the globe. It's great fun pointing out the different countries. We also teach about all the different animal toys we have around the house and which countries or continent it comes from. I'm pretty happy the product is sturdy and my son can be rough with the toy.
Visually appealing, but a bit boring

This globe is really cute to look at, but didn't grab the attention of my 4 and 2-1/2 year olds. We talked about the continents, but once they'd done it once they were bored. If there were some structured activities to go along with it, that would help!
