Everyone Should Have One!
Reviewed By: Nita 
Just received 2 of these in the mail (super fast shipping to Canada!) a week ago, and we've already had so much fun with them! They're so portable, and are perfect for the Homeschooling parent who finds learning opportunities EVERYWHERE. A definite "must-have" for every household.

Pocket Microscope
Reviewed By: Noah 
I really like this microscope! I've used it to look at all of my slides, and it works great. It fits perfectly in my backpack and I can't wait to take it on a science field trip.

Magical Pocket Microscope
Reviewed By: Pop-pop 
Wow... our grandkids (ages 6&8) really got in to this microscope... small inexperienced fingers really were captured at the dining room table exploring the fascination of the Kids Microscope Slide Set. It really works! The prepared slides work best by removing the slide holding mechanism at the base and simply placing the upper unit on to the prepared slide. We looked at regular table salt at all levels of magnification... at full magnification they were so astounded that one salt granule fills the entire eyepiece view and shockingly looks like a perfect die cube. The unit is so inexpensive that we bought one for each child... can't wait for the next snowfall so we can look at snowflakes on a piece of metal left on the back stairs... batteries were included and last a long time.

Nice Pocket Microscope
 
My six year old daughter has really enjoyed this microscope. As soon as it arrived, we took it out of the box and she began exploring the world around her. We were able to look at everything from child prepared slides to leaves and rocks outside. She even explored with hair pigment, to wood grain on the table, and fibers in material. I anticipate her using this quite a bit. It is quite impressive for a little microscope and is great for starting out. This has been a great introduction for her and I look forward to us moving on to purchase a regular microscope.

-  Friday, February 20, 2009 great item Reviewed By: Spencer  This is a great microscope! I'm using it for a science fair project that involves Protists, I'm able to see all of them. Everyone in my family wants to borrow it, it's alot of fun.  -  Wednesday, January 14, 2009 Great value and fun!   Our kids have loved having this little microscope on hand. It works great for what we are using it for in early elementary science.  -  Monday, January 05, 2009 Pocket Microscope Reviewed By: Paige  I purhcased this for my 11 year old son as a Christmas gift. This microscope is great to drop into a backpack when hiking and camping. We were able to observe bugs, leaves and moss upclose. I highly recommend this product. Thanks!  -  Thursday, August 21, 2008 Great product, GREAT price! Reviewed By: Holly B.  I saw this same item at a homeschool convention for way more than sold here, so I am glad that I had already run out of money:) When I ordered this a few weeks ago my kids weren't impressed but once it arrived it has been used to look at the prepared Botany slides I bought, a fly's wing, moss, an aphid, salt and so much more. This really does the job for my kids (12 & 8) and I'm sure it will spur us on to bigger things! Thanks!  -  Saturday, December 08, 2007 Pocket Microscope is great for elementary explorers. Reviewed By: Denise Parr  I bought this microscope for my 6 yr. old nephews, but my 13 yr. old evaluated the product. He liked the way the base slides off so you can examine mold on bread, outdoor bugs, and crystals. We also purchased the Kids Microscope slide set and were able to view the slides with all 3 magnifications. This is a great portable tool for a parent with curious children. My nephews will need adult supervision and help focusing the microscope, but this is a great alternative to buying an expensive model until they get older and more careful.
