Using the Magic Pen
To begin your adventure, press the power button. Choose a fact
category to learn different facts about the world or select a
Eureka Challenge game to test your knowledge.
Note: Whenever you touch the Explorer globe remember to use the
Magic Pen. Never use a regular pen on your Explorer!
Learn Facts About the World!
The Explorer teaches the following facts:
• Location Names
• Capital
• Population
• Area
• High Point
• Money
• Music
• Time
To learn a fact about a specific region, turn the dial to the specific
fact you want to learn. Next touch the area you want to learn
about with the Magic Pen to hear the fact. To learn additional
facts about the same area, turn the dial to another fact.
To zoom in on a particular area press a Geographic Region
Button. Using these buttons, you can zoom in on a continent,
country, or state and hear the corresponding facts about the
selected area.
Comparisons of different areas:
To compare the population and land area of two different places,
turn the selector dial to "Comparison" then touch the two loca-
tions you want to compare.
To learn the distance between two locations, select "Distance"
and touch two points on the globe. The globe will also state the
flying time between the selected locations.
While exploring with the Magic Pen, the country or state you
select may be too small for the Magic Pen to identify. When this
happens, the Explorer will announce a series of possible coun-
tries or states and corresponding colors—"El Salvador, touch
green, Nicaragua, touch yellow." Turn to the globe’s Compass
Rose, located in the North Atlantic Ocean and touch the Magic
Pen to the part of the Compass Rose (arrow or circle) that is
the color of the area you would like to select. The Explorer will
say the area’s name and the fact you selected.
