An educational toy which allows a user to experience the true scale of our solar system is disclosed. The toy includes a box with a tape or strip of paper contained within the box. The length of the tape when it is unwound represents a scaled distance between the earth and the sun. Located at a first end of the tape is a dot representing the earth. Located at a second end, opposite the first end of the tape is a circle representing the sun. The sizes of the dot and of the circle represent the relative size of the earth and sun when they are spaced at the scaled distance.
