I purchased these for my preschool classroom. I am so glad I did. We keep them in a bowl in our classroom and the kids grab them and use them everyday. They have been used inside and outside daily for 6 months and they have held up perfectly. I am so happy with this purchase. They are just the right size for kids.

I made pouches out of fleece fabric to protect the glass from scratches but these are very durable.

These magnifiers are really sturdy and do a great job of magnifying. My kinders are loving them. They have a bit of a weight to them, which is great because the kids can really feel them in their hands are extra careful with handling them!

I teach at a nature based preschool, and these are hands down the best magnifying glasses we use. They can be dropped without breaking, the glass doesn't scratch like plastic does, and they are the perfect size for preschoolers' hands without being too heavy or cumbersome. Great viewing area. And to top it all off, I have 12 kids, and these come in a set of 12!

We use these in our science center and in our sensory table and the kids love them! They work great, and are VERY durable- do not even have scratches after a year or two of steady use and being thrown into the sensory table with other materials. Would definitely recommend- well worth the money!! I actually need to invest in another set...
