Colorful Solar System Sky Projector

This was a great find! I'm homeschooling my kids and this week we are covering the solar system. This was a great and fun way to supplement their learning. It's easy to put together as most is already done for you, you just need to connect the stem and the base, then put the stickers on, and put in the slides if you are using them. Lightly push on one of the stickers of the planets and it will give you some facts about the corresponding planet, in English or Spanish depending what you have turned on. The accent isn't perfectly clear but you can understand it. Put the slides in the projector and focus the top and it'll show on the ceiling. There's slides for the planets, the galaxies, and space exploration. The kids loved it and it's better than I expected. Very happy with the product!

We are reading Planet topic books this period, we borrowed the DK published Planet from the library. My son love to look the pictures and play the solar system model. He learned the solar system very fast and well, besides, he really enjoy to play it. With projecting flashlight of the 24 slides, we can see beautiful solar system on the roof. It is a sweet family time.

The product was easy to assemble and easy for our grandson to use. He was excited as he met me at the door with the assembled product in my hands. He is 4yrs old and enamored with the planets and solar system. He names the planets by sight and was delighted with the ceiling projections. It has received lots of use since his 2 yr old sister likes what he likes and can name the planets by sight as well.

We originally got one as a birthday gift for a friend. He loved it so much I got one for my son. He carries it everywhere and uses it while he watches solar system videos on his tablet. The projector is also awesome and shows well even when the room isn’t totally dark. Love the facts it shares about the planets as well.

I purchased this for my great nephew, he thinks it’s the greatest. Comes in only 2 pieces stat snap together. The only problem was I had to open the box to see how many and what kind of batteries it needed. (3 AA ). The 3 discs are nice and clear. You have a choice of sound in English or Spanish.

This is a great way to help kids visualize the plants and how they rotate around the sun! Such a simple concept which incorporates useful audio to tell you more about each plants. My kids loved seeing the images projected onto the ceiling. They are very clear. It is easy to put together and pretty durable. I'd say this is a great toy for a wide age range of kids!

My son wants to become an auerospace Engineer and a professor who invented the Oscar 3 who mentors him (asperger age 10) had gave me a few gift ideas for his birthday. Hex robotics, Engineering activities for kids, Auerospace engineer book for kids, This was one of the gift ideas and he loved it. He loved them all. He immediately started working on this and telling me the whole solor system. I knew he knew a little but not that much lol. But then again he is mentored by an auerospace and mechanical inventor professor. This is a must for the space lovers and does not break your pocket. They also have this at walmart same price.

This is a nice little toy for helping encourage my daughter's interested in the solar system and astronomy with the model and projector. The projector is battery powered and pretty bright in the dark. The clarity is good enough to keep my daughter fascinated. There's English and Spanish audio that provides descriptions of the planets. The improvements I would ask for is a volume control to reduce the volume and a way to power it through a wall outlet like a USB plug or something.

This is a great project for kids who are learning about space and the planets. My oldest who’s 11 was able to do it all by himself, but my 7 yrs. old needed help. The planets and arms are all labeled, but the metal pegs are not so it was kinda tricky deciding which one went to what planet. The arms do rotate allowing you to change the position of the planets. We did not use the paint that came with the kit, but instead used our own acrylic paint. It was decent my kids just wanted different colors. Once the paint dried it was all very easy to assemble. Overall my kids really enjoyed the kit and I would buy it again.

Small but great if you don't have space for a big permanent one. My daughter is 7 and really enjoyed painting and assembling this together. The plastic sphere halfs need to be snapped together which I found was hardest for her. If we had to do it again I would make sure I broke each one out of their holders one planet at a time. The reason is that some planets are the same size and the labeling is just one really small character printed on the inside of the shape. So, I just had to find, read and snap them together. She did all the painting and was able to read the gray arms that they sit on. They don't snap on so they can come off easily but so far we haven't lost a planet or the sun. My daughter has learned well with it and it was fun for her to do. Would recommend to others as a home learning device.
