The removable telescope does not have good focus. Although the included slides are educational, I don't think kids will want to listen more than once. Also there are not enough "scientific" slides; too many pictures of animals.

This is a great toy. Kids will use it a lot then put it aside for a while and then use it again. It does seem to interest younger kids (around 7) while the content of the "slides" really won't be retained unless they use it when they're older. Still, it focuses them toward science and many fun facts. It's very durable. The detachable telescope is an added plus.

My 4 year old daughter is obsessed with the solar system.. stars, planets etc. I looked at many telescopes and knew she would not be able to understand what she was seeing. This is perfect ! The slides are clear and fun to look at..it tells you about the slides and she is actually able to answer questions on the quiz. It is educational and fun. I would not recommend it for older kids.

Honest reviews on GeoSafari Jr. Talking Telescope

I bought the talking telescope for my son's 4th birthday knowing that he loved everything about science. He likes to switch the slides (especially the ones about the solar system) and enter the codes to hear the comments. You can put all the slides in the little drawer in the back, it is durable. You can detach the telescope from the microscope to play with it. He is just starting to listen to the quiz but it is still a little hard for him to get the answers right. Like everything, I hope we do not lose any of the slides so my second child can play with it later on. Good looking product, durable, fun and educative. I am happy with my purchase.

My son has been asking for this since last Christmas This year we bought it for him and have no regrets. He is fascinated by the slides and retains a lot of the information. The toy is reasonably well-constructed, but we have only had it for a few weeks, so I can't say for sure how well it will hold up to the abuse the kids give it.
