Let Your Kiddo Hug The Earth, Literally! Hugg-A-Planet Review & Giveaway!

I was recently introduced to the Hugg-A-Planet product line. The Hugg-A-Planet Product line was aboard the first Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) rocket to the International Space Station (ISS), the Sept. 11 launch and Sept. 18th docking was flawless. They are adorable, huggable and fun too!

We received the Hugg-A-Planet Earth with Moon and Mars. Danika loved them so much she insisted on sleeping with them :) The Hugg-A-Planet® Earth, Hugg-A-Moon™ and Hugg-A-Planet® Mars will circle the Earth for many years to come. The Hugg-A-Planets will make a full orbit around the Earth every 90 minutes on the Space Station. They will stay there for as long as the space station remains active, at least till 2016, and will orbit the Earth 5860 times every year! NASA chose the Hugg-A-Planet globes peacetoys.com as a space-based teaching tool because of their geographic accuracy and soft construction. They also can be tossed around like a ball or used as a pillow. How cool is that?!

Danika loves for us to show her where we live on the Planet Earth. It is great to be able to start teaching her some geography at a young age and in a fun way. She loves to throw the planets around, use them as pillows, hug them and bounce up and down on her butt on them. She has found many uses for them! They are a lot of fun and I like that they are labeled in an educational way. There are over 600 places labeled on the Earth, 100 on the Moon and the moon is in proportion to the Hugg-A-Planet® Earth.

Mars is very cool as well. It is the most detailed globe of Mars available anywhere with over 400 places labeled. So take a visit to the "Red Planet", Mars. Is proportional to Classic Earth and comes with a fact sheet on the planet Mars.

The Hugg-A-Planet line is a lot of fun and is educational as well. You can buy all of the planets from Peach Toys. The Earth & Moon Set sells for $34.95. I love that you can put the moon inside the pocket of the Earth. Mars sells for $18.95. Any of the planets would be a fun and educational gift for any age!

Win! One lucky reader will win a Hugg-A-Planet Earth!
