 Great toy for introducing child to travel & geography May 07, 2007
By A. Morton
My husband and I used this toy to introduce our 2 1/2 year old to the concept of my travelling to Australia and it worked a treat. Although the "globe" is large, the "squishy" factor made it easy for our son to catch the ball and the colourful mapping made it fun to show him where he lives in comparison to Australia. Since world geography isn't necessarily taught very well in schools, I think this is a fantastic tool to introduce the concept of a 'world view' to children at a young age...and one that can be used for years to come!

Hugg-A-Planet Jan 12, 2008
By K.
I bought this for my 2-year-old son and he likes the bright colors of the ball a lot. But it is actually a toy for the whole family, we often sit down and study it. We found a few errors, but that was to be expected. My main criticism is that after a while it becomes lumpy and I don't think there is enough filler, so it's not really round.
But it's a fun educaional toy that would entertain your whole family!

 Hug-A-World - Awesome for teaching and babies! Jul 28, 2010
By iErlynn
This product is fantastic. I have been using it for years in my classroom. I ask a question and then toss the globe to the students who raise their hands. They answer and then toss back the globe. It gets students volunteering who normally wouldn't.
It does fade after say 5 years or so and gets a little nasty from all the dirty middle school hands, so I replace them every few years and get a fresh new one. It holds up very well and has never torn. It is awesome in my history classroom. A+
I have also seen it used in Sunday School and VBS to sing "He Has the Whole World in His Hands".
Naturally as a history and geography teacher I think starting education early is very important, and this product is great. I give these as baby gifts to everyone! It is very soft and squishy and a great huggable toy! Please get a Hugg-a-world and teach your children young, so I can stop answering the question in the eighth grade "Why are there two Pacific Oceans on the Map?" (yes im serious)

Perfect for Class Meetings Apr 03, 2009
By Jamie S. Brown
"Allison Brown--first grade teacher"
In my first grade classroom we pass this around *every single morning. "What's going on in your world" Each student gets a chance to talk..it can be about anything!! I've been doing this for several years now. Such a valuable tool for rapport in the classroom~

 Great toy! Oct 12, 2011
By cdmk
"cdmk"
I wanted to get my son a globe, and this was perfect. The globe is quite detailed in labelling countries, states, etc, and I think he will get a couple of good years out of this. Wish it was stuffed a little bit more though, sometimes he uses it as a pillow and it gets flattened out easily.
