Pros:
- Interactive app brings globe to life - The AR component makes learning about animals, culture, and geography fun through games, sounds, and interactive elements. My kids are captivated.
- Appealing visuals - The illustrated animals and environments on the globe look great and draw the kids in. - Vibrant colors and cute creatures get their attention.
- Expansive content - With so many places and animals to explore, there is a ton of information for them to discover. Enough to keep them learning for months.
- Games reinforce lessons - Activities like feeding animals their preferred foods reinforce what they learn about habitats and diets. Very clever.
- Passport sticker book - The included passport and stickers encourage them to engage and "travel" to different places. A creative bonus.
- Works for range of ages - Older kids get more from the detailed content. Versatile for siblings.
Cons:
- App can be glitchy - We've encountered some tech issues getting it to sync properly, especially in low light. When it works, it works wonderfully.
- Typos and errors - I've noticed some spelling and grammar errors in the app content. Needs a bit better proofing.
- Country boundaries not shown - The globe itself is missing country lines. Would be nice to toggle those on via the app for context.
Overall, the Orboot AR globe was a decent educational toy buy. The integrated app makes interacting with the globe fun and dynamic. I would recommend this educational toy. Hope this helps.
Top reviews from other countries
The toy comes with a really cute globe that has pictures of various animals and monuments instead of the traditional country borders (bonus - really cool room decor). Once you install an app on your phone/tablet, you allow access to your camera and it automatically synchs with the globe when it registers the little stars on the globe. Various things will pop up on the screen in a virtual reality simulation. The child can move around the globe and will view different things depending on what part of the world they are hovering over. It’s the coolest thing ever - I was so impressed when I saw it!
You can explore animals, monuments, cultures, food, flags and much more! Your child can click on the images that pops up and it brings them into another screen that is sort of like an encyclopedia with various facts and little games.
I like that this is an interactive game and is educational, so it doesn’t feel as though he’s just blindly sitting behind a screen; he’s actually learning!
The only thing I would caution is to ensure your tablet or phone is compatible with the device before purchasing as the app may not work on some older models.
Definitely a great educational toy for kids (I’d say around 4 is a great age to start).
