Perfect for Curious Minds

Students love using this microscope. I teach first grade and once I showed students how to use it, their curiosity ran wild.

Convenient to use!

My grandkids LOVE the microscope set. They have already observed everything they could find in their yard. I know it will be a good learning tool for them to use for quite a few years. It is convenient to have a hard carry case for all the supplies. Easy to manage.

Very nice for older toddlers and kids

I bought this for my 4 year old - he is still a little young for it and can only use it under our supervision due to the glass pieces. Overall it's a great quality beginner microscope and he loves using it.

Perfect for curious kids!

My 6 year old loves this toy. He loves when people asks him questions about it because he will nerd out and show them all that it can do. He loves finding new things he can stick on the empty slides and examine closer.

Great starting microscope

This kit is a great starter kit for younger kids. My 6 year old, almost 7, loves the kit. My husband and he were inspecting some of the pre-prepared slides from the kit and found some other items to observe as well. It comes in a carrying case so the microscope and all the little pieces stay protected and together. It is a bit pricey but hopefully will be used for a long time.

Perfect for your little scientist

My 7 year old requested this for Christmas and uses it ALL the time! He loves to bring it outside with him and find various things he can try to look at. Definitely one of his favorites in all of his science stuff!
