Learning Resources Inflatable Globe Without Light

Bought to replace an older one that deflated. Grandkids love it, playing with it like a ball but they will often sit down with it, study it and ask questions. Well worth it.

No repair kit included and impossible to inflate. Don’t bother.

Bought this as a stocking filler for my 7 year old niece and spent the evening discovering all the places she had heard but had no idea where they were. Had a great game 'find the country' Would recomend for any child or for any backpacker.

For the price Its fine, my kids are mainly throwing it around in the pool. And for that I'd buy it again. But isn't as described. Half of the country names are illegible, it doesn't come with the repair kit, hook or activity pack as described. If you wanted it for your classroom, spend a little more.

This globe is fine - I bought it for a game with my Brownie Unit and it managed to be thrown about by 32 girls for an evening without getting broken. It does look a bit squashy and mishapen even when blown up to full, but for the price I don't think this matters at all. Didn't spoil our usage anyway.

My grandson is interested in the world and Britain's place in it, 'How far is Australia? Is it further that Poland? Where's the Arctic? etc. So I bought this for me, so that I could show him places on our webcam conversations. It's a success so I've just bought another one for him to have. Great value for money. It will blow up rounder that it looks on the illustration and it has a loop on the top and a cord to tie through so you can spin it round or hand it up.

Had high hopes for this, but the quality is terrible for the price. Very quickly it became obvious that the valve didn’t hold the air in no matter how firmly the stopper was put in. After less than an hour the globe was clearly deflating. Having to inflate it every time it was used also put strain on the seams and one of those leaked after a few days so it only stayed inflated for a few minutes

Very good ball. If you are not expecting geografical precision, you will most likely be happy with it. It's not meant to ge a globe. I bought it for my 5 and 3 year olds to give them an idea of how the earth looks like and what are the distances between countries (why we say that Australia is down under). They really liked looking at the countries and continents and kicking the ball as well.
