Description

I had to get some batteries and see for myself how this toy worked. It clearly is cool! All of the pictures are inside, like a little show as you look through the view finder. The child uses the buttons to select a topic to explore: planets, cosmic events, constellations, solar system, stars, and galaxies. Choose one button to hear Emily Candrelli (MIT-Engineer & Host of Emily’s Wonder Lab) share facts as you gaze at a photographic image or test your knowledge by choosing quiz mode. Use the number buttons to answer. Requires 3 AA batteries, not included. ~Sara
