The Earth Balloon is a 20', hand-painted inflatable globe that our educators bring to your school. When classes enter the globe through the zippered doorway, they sit on Antarctica and can see Earth's patterns in continuous panorama and begin to make connections among Earth's systems.

Each program involves students in actively making discoveries. All learning goals are based on national and state geography and science standards.
