 "Disappointing product" 2009-04-16
By gardengal
Many of the cards were confusing. Cards easily bent, storage not great. No system to what is being presented and geo safari "computer" is difficult for little ones to use. The whole system was a real disappointment.

 "Great educational value and fun, but relatively old technology" 2009-01-02
By Kurtulus Alic (Istanbul, Turkey)
This product has a great educational value. The cards are great, I wish there was stuff like this when I was growing up. My five year old loves this. The technology is relatively old, given the more advanced products, CD-roms, etc on the market. The biggest strenght of this product is the educational cards that are designed by education professionals. Recommended.

 "clarification" 2009-05-05
By Kate (Iowa)
After reading the disappointment of the 1 star reviewer I checked on another website selling this product and this is what they said: "The lessons here are for children ages 8 and up. With this expansion pack you can expand your ages 3-7 edition Geosafari Laptop!"



It is confusing as Geosafari sells two laptops and this expansion pack appears to be for the 3-7 yr old machine, expanding the younger version to the older age group.



Buyer beware.

 "not as advertised, at all!" 2009-01-21
By Colleen Toll
This was advertised as a supplemental kit, one for the geosafari laptop.

But it is the same exact card set as the one that comes with the unit, though neither product gave that information. Not only was it unneeded, but I'm not sure I would have bought the geo safari laptop if I had known there were only the cards that came with it available. Now I'm out the shipping costs and had to give a present only half as good as I thought. Instead of 126 cards, I only have 63 usable ones.

And some of the cards (ages 8 and up) could have easily been answered by a 4 yr old. The endangered animal card is just one example - pick the tiger? Please!

A very unhappy customer, esp as it's my first time buying from Amazon. Doubt I'm coming back, nor would I recommend it to anyone.

 "My almost-4-yr-old loves it" 2008-01-13
By sciencemom (Montclair, NJ)
My son has been asking for this since last Christmas This year we bought it for him and have no regrets. He is fascinated by the slides and retains a lot of the information. The toy is reasonably well-constructed, but we have only had it for a few weeks, so I can't say for sure how well it will hold up to the abuse the kids give it.

 "could get boring" 2008-01-02

The removable telescope does not have good focus. Although the included slides are educational, I don't think kids will want to listen more than once. Also there are not enough "scientific" slides; too many pictures of animals.

 "Interesting Toy" 2007-01-11
By Ex- Amazon shopper
This toy is fun for small children who want to pretend to be scientists. I ended up having to order this item directly from the manufacturer 2 days before Christmas because Amazon decided to cancel the order 2 days before Christmas for no apparent reason (stocks were available but apparently Amazon couldn't figure out how to use eHobbies website to order the item.) Since this was an item that my 4 year old had asked for from Santa, you can imagine her disappointment on Christmas day when it didn't make it under the tree.

 "It will be nicer when my daughter gets older" 2008-12-14
By Mackenzie H. Powell
My daughter has been asking a lot of questions that are harder to answer without visuals so that's why we orderd this globe. The globe itself is pretty nice and will serve the purpose I was hoping for but I thought the talking globe would be more fun for her. Unless I am mistaken, it is only a quiz game and the questions are pretty tough. They are not even questions that the answers can be found on the globe but I guess it's enough for food for thought. Hear the question and if you don't know the answer, do the research- maybe it will make her more curious!

 "GeoSafari Talking Globe" 2008-11-23
By LWR (Las Vegas, NV)
After determining that our family needed to purchase a globe, we decided on the GeoSafari Talking Globe because in addition to having a nice globe, you also have a fun and educational electronic game that can run on either batteries or an AC adapter (neither are included). The globe itself is a nice quality and made by the George F. Cram Co. The game is easy to play with one to four players. The only negative point that I see, is its potential for breakage due to its plastic meridian. However, with careful usage, this should not be an issue. We have, in years past, also purchased the GeoSafari Laptop and the GeoSafari Talking Globe Traveler, and they are still going strong (with the occasional need for fresh batteries).

 "slightly dissapointed" 2008-05-04
By Mrs. Tetreault (tulsa, oklahoma)
I am quite disappointed with this product because it doesn't do what I expected. I brought this for my seven year old son because he loves to learn about different places. I thought the globe would help him learn by pointing to a place and telling him about it. Instead, it just plays a game asking questions. Yes, he can learn by this type of interaction, but that is not what I wanted from this product. I thought I had search the internet enough and had found what I wanted for him, I didn't. In my opionion, it would be a great institutional learning aide for a classroom environment. Perhaps for an older child this would be a more useful learning product.

 "Durable, Educational, and Fun" 2009-12-28
By G. Abraham (SC)
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.

 "For readers only" 2009-11-11
By R. Maynard (Orange County, CA)
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.

My son, almost 4 years old, enjoys this toy. It is easy enough for a 4 year old to use. The slides of insects and spiders contain real animals. The view is very clear The microscope is light weight and easy to store (save your box for storage). My only complaint is that the microscope's eye piece gives off a bad plastic-smell.

By Robin M. Persson
My 5 year old son received this microscope for Christmas. It is a cute toy and my son loves looking and learning about all of the bugs that come with the slides. It is a good toy microscope for young kids, just don't expect to be able to do much more than look at the bug slides that come with it. My only complaints are that the slides are not magnified very much and sometimes you have to enter the code several times to get the microscope to tell the bug facts, which can get frustrating for my son.

It is simple enough for a 4/5 yr old to use. My son loves to take the quizzes after his quick bug lesson. Would love to get additional slides - if none available, would be my only complaint.

 "Not really worth $30" 2009-12-29
By Scarlettsfat (Atlanta, GA)
I thought this was an actual microscope. I also thought it would have a lot of cool slides with lots of interesting microscopic things to peer at. It's just a kids toy. And a very juvenile one at that. All that is included is bugs, and they are not really magnified. It's just a picture of a mosquito or a beetle on a white screen. Do you remember the old red "View Finders" from the 80's? This is a much more base-level version of that - only not nearly as much variety and not nearly as cool. My kid liked it, but I am sorry I spent $30 on it.

 "Fun Microscope for small kids" 2009-12-28
By Toni Bradley Smith (Muskogee, OK)
I bought this for my 5 year old son who is really into bugs and science. He loves looking at the slides. We are having trouble typing in the code and getting the microscope to recognize the slide and begin asking questions etc...but he still has fun looking at the slides and talking about what he sees. I gave it a lower review on fun because it fails to hold his attention due to the fact we can't get the machine's talking portion to ask him questions.
