5.0 out of 5 stars These are great puzzles, August 2, 2008

I bought these puzzleballs for my ds who just turned 7. He loves the solar system and these were right up his alley. They were relatively easy for him to put together. All the pieces are numbers on the back. So it was just a matter of putting them in their proper order. They are very sturdy plastic. We did break one piece and will be contacting the company to see if we can get a replacement.

I got this for my daughter who is 10. It helps her remember the solar system very well. We had a lot of fun assemblying the puzzles. It is not our first time with ball puzzles. I had snoopy ball puzzles, earth puzzle etc. These ball puzzles have always been numbered on the inside of the pieces. Thus when assembling, we just needed to put the pieces in order of the numbers and the directions indictated. The numbers will not show up when completed as they are on the inside. Jupiter had nice colour and detail on it. A nylon line thread allows for haning of the planets. The sun was not a puzzle planet but a cardboard drawing. The pieces are very durable and the pieces need not be glued together.
