Numbers and symbols. 48 pieces. 4 Years +

#numbers (2009-03-17) would have preferred if the product came with some kind of storage for the numbers but overall a good product

#Not enough magnetism (2009-02-08) The letters and numbers do not have strong enough magnets to hold some characters up without them sliding. On this basis I cannot recommend this product. How hard is it to get some magnetic characters right. . . . disappointing :-(

A double sided board, 29 x 23 cm. The front side is for use with magnetic accessories or chalks, the reverse is white for easy use with dry-ease markers.

#Fridges are still the best (2009-04-28) A bit dissappointed with this product not what expected, not been played with yet, perhaps when grand daughter is older.

#Smaller than expected (2009-02-04) Bought this to help to teach my son words but was a lot smaller than expected so was no good for the purpose i purchased it.

#Not what I expected (2008-12-21) The board is quite small (a bit smaller than A4 paper size). It does not come with dry markers and chalk as given in the product description. This was quite disappointing, because this was the main reason I bought it for I thought it was good value for money. The product description is also inaccurate, because it says one side is chalk, while it really is a dry wipe board.

#Great Educational Tool (2009-05-02) I was sceptical due to the price of this and since it was for my 5-year old, though this has proved to be a hit. Yes, it is expensive, though as a way to introduce a child to the world, to get them to explore the countries and capitals - learn about capitals, population, area, high points, money, music and current time, etc in the 2 weeks we had so far it has been an eye opener with him wanting to play and learn (the fact that Antarctica has no currency always brings him hilarity)The play facilities are again a way to encourage the learning, and ev...

#leapfrog globe brilliant (2009-02-26) the leapfrog globe was a brilliant purchase for our 5 year old twin boys on their birthday. They love the music for each country and are fascinated by the size and population figures. I think it will be something that they will love and use and learn from for many many years and into secondary school as it s informative still for me and their Dad with the information on currency and so on. It was well packaged and in perfect condition on arrival as I was concerned about it surviving the delivery.

#Fun for all (2009-02-05) I bought this globe for my son(8 years) and daughter(4 years) and they thought it was great. My daughter especially likes the world music mode. My wife and I too have played the name the countries game at the hardest level and it is challenging. One quibble, the pen seems to stop working sometimes. . . . especially when the children are getting a bit excited. . . but a quick switch off and on cures it. I do think the instructions actually recommend new batteries in this instance. Overall great fun. and a nice looking toy.

#Fantastic learning toy. (2009-01-17) Want to get the kids to actually learn something ? Then this is excellent. Parents will learn too. Plays games involving continents , capitals , oceans ect ect and plays them against a timer so the kids get better and better. Quite expensive but worth every penny. Will tell you the time across the world and has its own built in clock. Can also do flight times populations and much more.

#LeapFrog Explorer Globe (2008-12-28) This globe is absolutely first class. We bought this for our daughter who is 5 for Christmas. She loves it!I like the idea of being able to find the countries or cities within 45 seconds as I am hopeless at geography and my daughter is beating me already. Well done Leapfrog for an outstanding toy!!
