Kids First Big & Fun Microscope

This big, colorful microscope was designed specifically to enable young kids to have successful microscopic viewing experiences, and to be a fun tool for early biological investigations. The 32-page, full-color manual is set up as an illustrated storybook, making it fun for adults and children to read together, while also instructing them how to use the microscope. As you read the story, you can find the slides of the objects that appear in the story and view them through the microscope. Includes specimens from animals like a feather, skin, hair, dragonfly wing and fly eye; biological specimens from plants like a mushroom spore, kiwi seed, lichen, pollen in honey, and flower stamen; and other specimens from everyday life like table salt, sugar and a zipper. Comes with a unique slide holder, 24 printed slides, and one blank slide. Each printed slide features one object at three magnification levels, so kids can relate a recognizable object, like a feather or bee, with two different magnified images of the object. The blank slide can be used to view other objects at 8x magnification. Features an extra wide eyepiece and battery powered, light-up slide stage. Requires 2 AAA batteries, sold separately. Designed for ages 4-6.
