When you're done, you should have a faint line that you can cut up to creating a hole for the Jansjo lamp. Not only does it create a safe sphere of light but also provides an educational and fun activity for kids.

The night light will keep the room lit just enough with different coloured lights until those sleepy heads start to drift off to sleep. The aim of Brainstorm Toys branded products is to entertain children but also to inspire them to learn more about their environment. For this particular application I used a relatively thin super glue so that I wouldn't end up with a bead of glue on the finished product.The super glue is also easier to apply in a controlled manner if you use a toothpick as an applicator instead of applying directly.

You can always get creative maybe only drill capital cities, or places you'd like to go, or places around the world that your family lives. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag.

These globes make fantastic learning resources no matter what the time of day as the globe lamp lights up the map allowing you to continue exploring deep into the night or simply easier viewing in dark rooms. You can go with a different or bigger model, but you may have to get a stronger articulating light since I don't believe the Jansjo light will hold the weight of a bigger globe.

Watch their faces light up with curiosity and listen as they ask questions about places and cities they may not have heard of yet.Once you have adjusted your globe and it is naturally resting in a position that you like, you can super glue it to hold it in place. Once you have a measurement you feel comfortable with, utilize a program like Adobe Illustrator to draw a circle with the diameter you've measured. You'll want to test fit the whole you just created against the Jansjo lamp itself to make sure that it fits. You can keep it like this as a fun visual dimension but they will also get ground down to equal size in the next step.

It's a useful introduction to the fascinating science of geography, as well as being a convenient desktop reference. This 20cm diameter globe is a miniature model of our huge planet at your finger-tips, giving you access to continents, oceans, countries and major cities. There is also a handy override switch which allows you to turn off the night-time view and thus conserve battery power. The Earth and Constellation Globe has an automatic light sensor so when the globe is turned on and the surrounding area is dark the globe will transform into a beautiful glowing globe showing the star constellations.The rods are thin enough that they can be broken by hand but you can also cut them with your dremel and a cutting disk (for plastic). Please note this lamp comes without any text on it as standard (a name can be added to the lamp by using the box provided). I've attached my PDF file of my circle if you do not have Adobe Illustrator or another program to draw the circle. You just place 4 AA batteries and press the one button the base of the globe which is the on and off button.
