The planet earth really is astonishing. It’s difficult to imagine the vast distances between neighbouring continents, the wide oceans and seas that cover over 70% of its surface, and the near 200 countries that exist around the world.
This 20cm diameter globe is a miniature model of our huge planet at your finger-tips, giving you access to continents, oceans, countries and major cities. It's a useful introduction to the fascinating science of geography, as well as being a convenient desktop reference.
The globe is mounted on a tilted arc stand, to represent the earth's angle in relation to its plane of orbit, helping to visualise how the seasons change through the year. The battery powered light allows you to see the various countries in brightly coloured blocks, with clear political boundaries.

It's illumination is excellent and the clarity of the words is good too - just right for an inquisitive wee boy.

Great globe - it will be a 5th birthday present and I am sure will be very popular, useful and educational.
- Christine K.Verified BuyerReviewingGlobe Light UpI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoHello world
Granddaughter loved it for her 7th birthday…. She is interested in the world around her .. I like the fact it is battery operated and there are no wires trailing to electric sockets in her bedroom….. also I was interested in the comments regarding purchasing globes manufactured in China or Russia perhaps not displaying national boundaries correctly
- Andrew L.Verified BuyerReviewingGlobe Light UpI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars4 years agoO wow
Our 4 year old grand daughter has a great interest in maps and her reaction to the the globe "Oh Wow", so I bought a globe to enable her to appreciate just where we are on our planet, and that it's not FLAT!!
She loves looking at it in the dark with its internal light on.
