TL;DR: Help your kid learn about different countries, cultures, and more with the Orboot Earth Augmented Reality Interactive Globe, on sale as of June 12. Use code ORBOOT at checkout to get it for only $49.99 — a 15% savings.


Sometimes tech can feel like a burden on your kid’s educational development. You never spent time in front of a screen like the little ones do today, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s wrong. In fact, tech can actually be pretty amazing at helping kids learn in 2021.

Take Orboot Earth, for example. This augmented reality interactive globe will keep your kiddos occupied for hours and actually teach them about our planet in the process.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars on Amazon, this award-winning educational toy sparks curiosity with over 400 highlights, 1,000 cool facts, and six different categories: animals, cultures, cuisines, monuments, inventions, and maps. It connects to an augmented reality app (compatible with Android, iPhone, and iPad), so when your child scans the globe and explores the world, the globe comes to life with visual storytelling, music, animal facts, voice interactions, and more. As they make their way across the planet, they can stamp their passports and add country flag stickers, which all come in the complete Orboot kit. And that’s all just in Explore mode.

Here’s a quick glimpse at how it works:

There are also three other modes your child can set Orboot to: Mysteries, Oko Park, and Quiz Wiz. In Mysteries mode, they can hunt for treasures around the world. In Oko Park mode, they can build their own national park, and in Quiz Wiz, of course, they’ll take on challenges. The different modes ensure this interactive globe remains not only educational but also fun for kids up to 10 years old or so. It’s an excellent early learning gadget for today’s curious kids. And you thought your plain old spinning globe was cool.

For a limited time, you can use the code ORBOOT at checkout and snag it for only $49.99 (regularly $59).
