Playz Premium Solar System Model Kit for Kids - 4 Speed Motor, HD Planetarium Projector, 8 Painted Planets & 8 White Foam Balls with Paint and Brush for a Hands-On STEM DIY Project for Space Toys

Bought this for my nephew for Christmas as he loves space and putting things together. He is 6 and he was able to put it together and he was using it to teach me about all the planets. He loves that the planets orbit around the sun and that he was able to paint some and also use the ones the kit comes with. The sun was cool because it's a projector. Overall great gift that's also educational. It came with a booklet with even more information and facts on the planets. If you have a kiddo in your life that loves space, or putting things together or you want to teach them and introduce them to space this is a great buy!

This wonderfully engineered and functioning orrery (solar system model) is going to be used to ramp-up our 3 year old grandson's understanding of the planets and his home in the universe. He can already locate his "neighborhood" on a earth globe. Visualizing orbits and relative position of planets and sun is going to be a mind-expanding complement to his solar system puzzles and books. Really appreciated the quality of the parts, nice packaging and the clear instructions. The magnetic tip on the provided screwdriver was a nice touch to help manage the few small screws. I recommend reading the review authored by "Book Lover" for a sensible and thoughtful product review.

"This solar system model has been a hit with my kids! The design is engaging, and the size is just right for little hands to explore. While it feels cheaply made, it has held up surprisingly well. Battery life is decent, lasting through multiple uses before needing a replacement, but would have preferred them to last longer. For the price, it’s a great educational tool, but I wish the materials were sturdier. Still, it’s a fun way to learn about space!"

The media could not be loaded. Excellent model of the solar system perfect for kids and space enthusiasts. Easy to assemble and works well. Projection is also good at night. Can be mesmerizing.

My Grandchildren love it and so do I

Very educational

I am a middle school Science teacher, and wanted something that showed the planets and their orbits. This product met that goal. It was easy to set up and looks nice. It even orbits nicely. However, the projector/sun isn't great. Many of the planets look the same with just a different color. It advertises these breathtaking HD projections, and that it was not. It will work for what I want to use if for. I was a little disappointed with the projected images though.

Very easy to assemble. Good instructions. My littles really like the rotating part. It's going to make a great visual aide for teaching.
