Soooooooo COOL!

This looks so cool that Im gonna order some as soon as I get enough money for it!!!!!!I love this!!

Not a bad product

We got this over two years ago for my daughter when she was 6 months old. We were looking for a mobile that wasn't "traditional." She still loves it and so does her baby sis. Yes, there isn't a sun, but if you look at the proportions, you would need a beach ball for the sun! We hung the planets from differ lengths of fishing line. Our only problem was Jupiter was too low and we kept hitting it. That was easy to fix. Don't forget to put the star stickers on the star tacks. If a tack fall out of the ceiling, you can use a flashlight at night to locate it quickly!

Excellent choice

My son recently finished a study of the solar system in his preschool class and was very excited about what he had learned. I searched for several items that I could purchase to both educated him further and that would add a decorative touch to his room. This item did both. I was rather put off by most reviews on the ease, or in most cases lack of ease, of installation. It took me 10 minutes to string up the planets, afix the fish line to the little star tacks and place them in my ceiling. . . a breeze. If the planets are near a light source they glow brightly and into the night. Infact we awoke this morning and they were still faintly glowing. Impressive. As for the stickers, well they are what they are...tiny. I used them on some left over spiderweb from halloween to create the milky way around the planets and the paper mache sun we created and they work fine. I didn't even need a tweezer. Great product!


Tip for installation - tie the string to the planet first in a knot, then tie a loop knot at the other end. Take that and slip it around the nail of the tack and tighten. The star head will keep the knot from sliding off the nail and it will be secure to hold the planets up. If you actually try to tie the fish line around/across the star head it will take hours and will make for a frustrating installation...
