Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Colorful, fun, versatile enough and durable. As they slip in the slides it tells you information and quizzes you. Very educational but still cute and quirky enough to keep a kids attention.

This is more of a practice microscope, which is what you would want in the first place for small kiddos. It has multiple volume controls and all of the slides stay neat in the little tray that clicks into the microscope.

My son is 5 and it took him awhile to learn how to get them in properly. My 4 1/2 yo grandson really enjoys this.



Cons

The toy is cute, but it's really not a microscope. If the slide on the stage cannot be ‘read’, the facts & questions cannot be selected. The magnification on this toy does nothing more than a rudimentary magnifying glass.

I have no idea why this product is so highly rated. It is disappointing to say the least. A disappointment in all ways. It’s a gift, so very disappointed.

    Sometimes its hard to tell if youve already used a slide and it would be nice if they were labeled in tiny print somewhere or even numbered
