Great for kids room!
Perfect for a space obsessed toddler! Love that they glow in the dark too, look especially good with the glow in the dark stars we already had up there :) they're light enough too they don't keep falling down from the ceiling either, just use a good white tack 👍

Lovely item - super price
Love these little planets! As you can see from my picture, I have strung them from the living room light shade; I think they look fantastic and my friend loves them so much, she got me to order her some too.The invisible thread supplied is nice and strong and there's a lot of it. As I tied the planets to the lamp shade, I didn't use the putty. I searched '3D solar system' and was able to place the planets roughly in their right places.I read some reviews that they did not glow in the dark but mine do! Perfect for £4.99 these would make a fantastic stocking filler.

a bit disappointing
Much smaller than i thought and not that bright in the dark. Disappointing. Some of the planets to small for younger children

My 5 year old nephew loves it
He has self taught himself on planets so bought it as a stocking filler to enhance his knowledge. He loves to test his family with the planet names.

Great
These were bought for my 5yrs old grandson for Christmas. The planets are easy to know as there is good detail to them.

Fantastic for a child's Solar System project!
These planets are very good! I ordered them for my 5yr old's Solar System project as didn't fancy trying to find and paint polystyrene balls. They do glow in the dark as described and are reasonably accurate in size/colour. I think they are very good value. I was impressed that they came with some strong invisible thread to hang them by and also some putty so they could be stuck to the ceiling if required. They were a little fiddly for the children to thread onto the string, but nothing an adult couldn't do. My only complaint/recommendation would be that it took some time of internet searching before I could be certain of which planet was which and in which order they should go as the smaller ones were not as easily recognisable. (Especially as different websites show some of the planets as different sizes and colours to other sites) It would be handy if a leaflet could be added to tell you this or even a picture on the side with the planets all named and in order. However this is only a minor issue. If you have a solar system project to do or a planet loving child then these are perfect!

Don't glow in the dark
They still look good in the space themed room but they've been up 3 days now and have not glowed in the dark once yet..( i feel seeing other reviews i must have got a dudd pack) The putty that comes with them to stick them up is also useless they keep falling down going to buy some clear drawing pins instead.
