Toys and Games Reviews of Phases of the Moon

Customer Review: Not bad, but don't think of moving them once they're up.
Summary: 3 Stars

The Good: Nice glow in the dark phases of the moon.

The Bad: Each phase is a separate piece, printed on cheap, floppy plastic. The sticky foam included for mounting is difficult to use and a little too permanent once installed.

Recommendation: If you get this set and want to install all of them, look up a chart of moon phases and arrange them in sequence. On a south wall, we put the waxing crescent on the far right (west), since most kids notice and observe the waxing crescent around sunset. The phases progress toward the east.

Description of Phases of the Moon

Kids can now experience the force that has organized civilizations for thousands of years -- without leaving the comfort of their home. This enlightening kit comes with eight 3D glow-in-the-dark moons, each depicting a different phase, which mounts easily on a ceiling or wall. Comes with a Lunar Guide Book with fascinating experiments that illustrate the moon's incredible magnetism. No other kit allows youngsters to see the full spectrum of lunar phases so realistically. A perfect match to our popular 3-D Solar System (sold separately).
