LeapFrog Explorer Globe
The LeapFrog Explorer Globe looks like a standard desk globe - but it's anything but ordinary. The talking globe features an interactive pen, which you use to locate countries, get world statistics from the globe's built-in atlas, and play games. The globe has two modes - Facts and Eureka Challenge - which allow you to either get info or test your knowledge. Geography has never been so fun!
LeapFrog Explorer Globe - Thumbs Up
- Both fun and educational.
- Thousands of world facts and six different games.
- Stylish globe will brighten up your room.
LeapFrog Explorer Globe - Thumbs Down
- Certain geographical information (population, for example) will quickly become out of date.
- Big price tag.
