- Expands from 9.5 to 30 in,
The Hoberman Sphere starts small and grows larger. And vice versa. Made of rainbow-colored plastic links, the sphere expands to 30 inches in diameter and contracts to a compact 9.5 inches. There's a hypnotic fascination in making the sphere expand and contract over and over again, but if kids want to do more with their sphere, a guide (included) lists some possibilities. How about trying the ballerina spin, the flip down, or the hot potato? The sphere can also be a fashion accessory. Think spiked hat or, even better, space helmet. Another option is to hang the sphere as a mobile. A pulley system is included, and a pull of the ring will cause the sphere to contract. Release the ring for expansion. Plenty of fun, the Hoberman Sphere might get kids thinking about mechanical engineering and some folding/unfolding projects of their own. Winner of the Parents' Choice Award.

My grandson loves this toy and so do I. It is a very space age toy and seems almost magical. Lots of fun. For children and adults.
Fun For All (2007-12-30)
Great Toy.
Our six year old can't put it down. Our 14 year old and 22 year old love to play with it.
Adults are fascinated.
Great fun, creative, and needs no batteries or instructions.
A+
Colorful and entertaining (2007-12-23)
At first,kept childs interest,however,she wanted the sphere to stay open so she could get inside it! Managed to do so ,only we had to hold it open. Is very effective as a manipulative for toddlers
Durable and educational (2007-02-28)
I love watching my son play with this shere. He likes to climb inside and let it collapse and then make it large again. You can see him trying to figure out how it works. He stretches it at times and it holds up so it is well worth the money.
Entertaining for all ages (2006-10-09)
I don't know what it is about this sphere, but babies and big kids alike are drawn to it...and can spend an hour opening and closing it. I like that because it doesn't force some external stimulus on them. You know they're using their minds and imagination with it, and still thinking it's fun. And it is very durable, because I have seen 80-pound kids try to fold up inside of it and then jump on top of it, and it's still in perfect condition.
