About this product
And you're off exploring the world! The planet earth really is astonishing. It's difficult to imagine the vast distances between neighbouring continents, the wide oceans and seas that cover over 70% of its surface, and the near 200 countries that exist around the world. This 20cm diameter globe is a miniature model of our huge planet at your finger-tips, giving you access to continents, oceans, countries and major cities. It's a useful introduction to the fascinating science of geography, as well as being a convenient desktop reference.
The globe is mounted on a tilted arc stand, to represent the earth's angle in relation to its plane of orbit, helping to visualise how the seasons change through the year. The battery powered light allows you to see the various countries in brightly coloured blocks, with clear political boundaries. It looks especially magical as a soft glow bedside light.
- For ages 8 years and over.

Bought for 4 year old granddaughter as Xmas present . She enjoyed it but I felt it was a bit smaller than I had imagined. It is ok as a basic glove with a light for night time.

Hello Wendy.
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for Science Mad 20cm Illuminated Night Globe.
On this globe, Taiwan is labelled as “Taiwan Dao,” which is the geographical name for the island. It refers only to the island’s location and does not indicate any political status. The island is shown in the same colour as the surrounding region.
Maps produced in China must follow the standard cartographic guidelines used by manufacturers there, so we are not able to specify or change how individual locations are shown.
Thank you for using Q & A.
