Learning Resources Nancy B's Science Club Microscope for Kids, Microscope Kit, Science Toys, Gift for Boys & Girls, Ages 8 9 10 Plus

Well presented item. If you have a child with an enquiring mind, this is terrific. The magnification is not excessive however it is sufficient to develop and cultivate interest

Great first microscope for kids ages around 8 years. Perhaps a few more blank slides and so.e extra stickers would have been nice but there are enough to get started.

Huey my grandson 5 years old , was elated when he saw his microscope , he showed an interest at 3 years old when I bought him a cheap bug kit , so this year he got a real microscope , Wow you can imagine his thrill , then he noticed it was by Nancy “B” my daughter and I looked at each other and said wow that’s spooky , hahaha , Huey asked who is she Nanny”B” is she your little girl , bless him xx

Bought this as a birthday present for our 8 year old but its almost impossible to use, the tuning required to get it to focus is almost impossible and requires a steady hand well beyond the capability of a child. The whole thing feels plastic and cheap and no where near the exciting science intro I was hoping for. Don't waste your money. I would have returned but I bought it 4 weeks before her birthday so the 30 day window had closed by the time we tried it. Awful disappointing product.

My daughter was made up with her microscope. Its a great little trinket to use to help young ones get used to using microscopes

Ok product. Not the best quality lens. Daughter (8) enjoys playing with it but I can't see it lasting.

bought for my 8yr old grand-daughter she loves it and so does her mum.well worth the money ! now were looking for things to look at under the micro-scope.

A cheap & cheerful starter microscope. Image quality won't win any awards, but it's good enough to get an idea of what's going on. Cheap optics are always going to have their limitations, but this is good enough at a pinch, and if you're unsure how it will be received, then this is just fine. If a better microscope is needed, then you can always buy a 'real' one, and if it gets used a dozen times and forgotten, then you haven't spent a couple of hundred quid for nothing. Comes with pre-prepared slides, which is great for kids who want to use it immediately!

Excelente regalo para niños de 7 años, para niños curiosos y con paciencia para manejar los lentes y enfocar, muy fácil de aprender pero lleva tiempo enfocar, niños más dinámicos y acelerados puede no ser ideal. Materiales muy solidos y de buena calidad, se ve que durará un buen tiempo

My 6 years old was asking for a microscop for a long time, so he got this one for his birthday. Don't expect it to be like the profesdional ones. Keep in mind:it's a toy and not a portable chemical lab. It's lightweight , easy to use and a good education " toy" for a starter. It has 4 prepared slides and a whole kit to make your own slide. It has focusing knobs and 3 types of magnificationas. I have to show my son at first how it all works,and he got it from the first time. He was very exited to see prepared slides. But the more excitement we got , when we prepared a slide with his own hair and an onion. " Mom, my hair looks like a pine tree".....Now he wants to see bacterias )))))). I don't know where to get it for him, but I will surche online how we can prepare simple ones. It also comes with an Activity Journal, but we didn't use it yet.I really recommend it as a present for a kid for any good occasion. It said + 8, but my son is 6 and he is mastering it now easily.

E' impossibile capire cosa si stia guardando . E' un giocattolo del tutto inutile ed è anche troppo leggero, non soddisfatta.

So this microscope did get the little girl it was bought for excited about science. Sadly, right out of the box it just did not work no matter how much tweaking we did. Ended up buying a her German brand (nice looking) junior microscope and she is a very happy little girl now. I guess she’s learning about all aspects of the field. It is sad, once again, make it pretty and market it to girls and we get ripped off. Quality control?

Can't say enough about this brand and concept. Love it. Comes with an educational journal and gives you something to go on and just the right amount of information and knowledge to go on to continue on after and do yor own experiments. I chose this kit alone for the workbook because most microscopes don't give any kind of books or journals to go off of. Love the entire kit. Bought it for my 5 yr old and she is really into it. We are having fun learning together. It's just enough learning to not be too boring and also give a nice foundation and taste of what it's like to get into the lab part of science.Oh I was leary about the microscopen but it works! I'm impressed and also don't feel like I broke the bank. I have twin3 yr old boys and they are pretty rough so if they get ahold of it accidently or somehow it breaks, I won't be so upset because the price is just right.The image is of peacock feather with the back light. It's brighter in person than through my camera phone.. the white washed out the feather a bit in my camera.
