9-14, or 15 and older. Using the wireless SmartPen, select a category from the menu, then just tap anywhere on the globe for audio narration about capitals, leaders, currencies, populations, distances, geography, history, current events, and more. Test your knowledge with 30 fun, interactive activities and quiz games for up to four people. A pullout, interactive U.S. map allows more detailed activities. Speakers are located in the pen and base; or use your headphones so as not to disturb other family members.

The SmartGlobe is the only learning globe that is internet updateable, so the information is always current. You just connect the SmartPen to your internet-connected PC running Windows XP using the included USB cable. We're not saying that other globes are dumb. Just that no other one is this smart or engagingly high-tech. So buy your family a SmartGlobe and enjoy your new-found worldliness. Paul Biya, the president of Cameroon, would be proud.
