Cheap Space Flashcards
My 18month old son loves this flash cards. The cards have great resolution.These are very high quality flashcards that both my kids, 4 and 2 years old, enjoy thoroughly. The photos look great and they are excellent for explaining the solar system. We haven't even begun to look at the fun facts on the back of each card. The very minor concern is that the content is slightly out of date. With Pluto now designated a dwarf planet, and other dwarf planets now identified, it would have been best to either exclude the Pluto card or include more dwarf planet cards. Further, there are three space shuttle cards, which look great, but given the space shuttles are now all in museums, they slightly misconstrue what vehicles we use to go up to and come back from Earth orbit. However, these minor concerns simply become learning opportunities to talk about the latest situation and demonstrate that scientific knowledge changes with new evidence and technological advances. These flashcards are absolutely recommended.
