Prepared slides is just the right thing for beginners. They are easy to use and will motivate my granddaughter to make her own. - Sunday, October 23, 2011 These slides are awesome!Reviewed By: Pat Parker I ordered a set of each of the kids slides. We got them and my 7 year old daughter could hardly wait to see them. Each one she put in i heard things like "WOW, mom, LOOK at this!" "OH this one is neat!" "Awesome! Mom, look at THIS one!" I think science just got a whole lot easier. These are easy to see, and will excite kids to look at their world more closely! - Saturday, August 27, 2011 Fun!!!Reviewed By: Chris I was afraid "prepared slides for kids" would be a waste of money. But my 12, 10 & 9 year olds are crazy about these! The specimens are familiar items so the kids were really surprised at the detail you can see through the microscope. These slides were the catalyst to make my kids excited about microscopic science! :) - Monday, July 11, 2011 Perfect!Reviewed By: Melissa I bought these for my daughter for her birthday, and the quality is such that I will probably "borrow" them for my life science classroom when I teach about microscopes. The slides are clearly labeled, and the images are colorful and fun for kids. I like having 4 images on each slide - feels like I am getting a lot for my money! - Thursday, May 13, 2010 Just what we needed!Reviewed By: Traci My 5- and 8-year-old daughters are just crazy about our small microscope, and this slide set was perfect for our "summer school" foray into the world of cells. The compact design made it so easy. Wonderful! Read More Reviews - Tuesday, December 08, 2009

This is a great starter set to give students a chance to practice using a microscope and begin investigating at the microscopic level.

Daughter loves them
Reviewed By: Jackie
Our daughter loves these slides. She looks at almost anything through her microscope that we had bought her last year. Now that we found this website we are going to get her a better microscope than the one she has. She loves telling everyone that she knows what is on each slide. Definitely a good starter slide kit for kids wanting to learn more about science.

Perfect Starter Set of Slides
Reviewed By: Petrie
I needed a set of slides that would be interesting and educational to my lower level elementary students, and not too difficult for them to understand since they haven't learned about cellular features yet. This was perfect. The slides are clearly marked, well-made, and come in a nice box for storage. The specimens are mounted nicely, and work great on our dissecting microscope.

Great Set

Great tool for youngsters
Reviewed By: Denise Parr
I bought this with the Pocket Microscope and was really impressed with the clarity and variety in the slides. The only drawback is that the pocket microscope's clips are spaced to when you are viewing one object on the slide the clips sit overtop of the other viewing areas. Youngsters still need to be careful because the slides are fragile, but at least they won't be cut by pieces of glass if they drop it.

Good for the boys

Good for younger children
This actually got rave reviews from our seven year old. It's a nice, durable set that should withstand years of use. It's great for younger kids because it doesn't involve lots of fragile glass slides or tiny coverslips. I doubt though its interesting enough to surpass more than a few uses.
