ITEM 5.    OTHER EVENTS

     See the following press release, dated March 21, 2001, announcing the
prospective delisting of the Company's common stock from Nasdaq.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE                        CONTACT:          Stephen E. Billis
                                                         Chief Financial Officer
                                                                  (310) 884-2000

                         EDUCATIONAL INSIGHTS ANNOUNCES
                              PROSPECTIVE DELISTING

Carson, CA - March 21, 2001 - Educational Insights, Inc. (NASDAQ: EDIN) having
received notice of potential delisting of its common stock by Nasdaq, announced
today that it will not pursue its right of appeal to a Nasdaq Listing
Qualifications Panel regarding its potential delisting. The Nasdaq listing
requirements include a rule requiring that a listed company's stock price be a
minimum of $1.00 per share. As the Company's stock price has been below that
level since November 17, 2000, it has been in violation of this rule. Based on
the current trading activity, it is likely that the Company will not meet the
minimum stock price threshold prior to the April 5, 2001 deadline set by Nasdaq.
As a result the Company's common stock will likely cease being traded on Nasdaq
after that date but the Company anticipates that it's common stock will be
eligible to be traded on the Bulletin Board and the so-called pink sheets.

Educational Insights, Inc. designs, develops and markets a variety of
educational products, including electronic learning aids, electronic games,
activity books, science kits, board games and other materials for use in both
schools and homes. The Company's product line, including its most popular
product, GeoSafari, appeals to children as well as students ranging from
pre-kindergarten to adult and is designed to make learning fun.

                                    SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
