Description
The Glowing 3-D Solar System comes from Great Explorations, the University Games range of hands-on science and STEM toys. This large box set contains three-dimensional models of all eight planets plus Pluto, with sizes ranging from 4.5 cm up to 12 cm, so giants like Jupiter really stand out next to little Mercury.
Children can use the planetary guide to arrange the planets in the right order, from Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars out to Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. The string, tacks and putty make it easy to hang the planets from the ceiling, and the adhesive stars, comets and asteroids fill in the rest of the night sky. Once the lights go off, everything glows softly for a magical bedtime display.
It makes a wonderful gift for young space fans and curious minds, and a great way to bring a bit of STEM learning into the bedroom, playroom or classroom. Parents love that it turns astronomy into a fun, creative project the whole family can put up together.
Whether you're decorating a space-themed bedroom or looking for an educational toy that sparks curiosity, the Glowing 3-D Solar System is out of this world.
Perfect for:
- Young astronomers and space fans
- Space-themed bedrooms and playrooms
- Classroom and home-school science
