I just love Leap Frog stuff!!! My second grader was learning about continents in school and they made a paper mache globe. I thought I would get her this globe for Christmas so she could see for herself where the continents really are. It has helped her with her school work and she absolutely loves it. When other children come over to play, it is the first thing they pick up and play with. It's extremely educational!! AND, since I'm not a geography whiz, it has helped me learn a few things too!!!
