It has been very helpful. My son uses this a lot for his Social Studies as well as to find places - if they happen to be mentioned in a book he is reading. He compares things shown on the globe to a spread out map he has - and yes he had found things which are shown on the globe and were missing in the map.
I wanted a globe that spins in more than one axis for the living room for kids to learn about the world. This was a good value and they can read it clearly.
The all-metal frame and base is solid. The price is VERY reasonable for the quality of this globe. This globe is far superior in comparison to the $40 globes at office supply stores. I am SO happy I chose this product.
So far, it has been an excellent choice. The globe pivots so he can see the north and south poles without lifting the globe; it has mountain features and the colors help identify boundaries very well. We bought this globe for our 6 year old grandson who loves maps, calendars, and learning new things. He enjoys finding locations and getting a better idea where they are in the world. It also has other features he will learn as his experience grows.
The colors are great and the ridges on the globe to show the topography is really a nice feature. Pioneer GlobeThis globe is exactly what I wanted and even better than I expected. We've wanted a globe for my husband's home office for quite awhile but hadn't found one we really liked so I'm happy we finally found this one.
