Hugg-A-Planet belongs in every toy box. by Stevanne Auerbach, Ph.D.(Dr. Toy) The early years are when children develop most of their personality, learn how to love, communicate and other skills for healthy human survival. By introducing a Hugg-A-Planet in these early development stages, children grow up loving and learning about the world. At some point a child will ask "where do we live?" For many the answer is - The Hugg-A-Planet you have, this is where we live. The child has a head start in finding their place in the universe, and the parent a way to communicate about the world we live in. Everyone can relate to our planet Earth and we also know the power of a loving hug. This combination is what makes this toy so special.

Comments about All Other Brands Hugg-A-Planet World 12-Inch Diameter Educational Globe:
This is really a globe, not just a kid's toy. All the countries are listed - my son really likes looking at it and learning the countries. However, it seems to be a little understuffed - it doesn't look as round as the photo...but is kind of flat unless you fluff it up a lot.
I gave "hugg-a-planet" to my boyfriend (29 yrs) as a b-day present because he's a huge traveler and loves maps. It would be great if you offered the product in a different color scheme more attractive to adults. A little less rainbow colored and more earth tones. Also, if you could add some more of the smaller places that would be great too.We use "hugg-a-planet" as a pillow on his couch and lay our heads on the destination we want to travel to next! We've even discussed taking it backpacking as a pillow/entertainment!
This product is great for the classroom. We ordered it for our 1st grade class this year and the children absolutely love it. The Hugg-A-Planet has become a favorite for the class. It works well into the geography lessons, something that the children can easily pass/toss to each other without any bumps or scratches.
