Learning Resources Nancy B's Science Club Microscope for Kids, Ages 8+, STEM Microscope Kit, Science Toy, Real Working Microscope, Gifts for Kids

Wonderful for child growing up

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!

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

This is a great product. Very easy to use and gets great results. We bought it for our 7 year old who is delighted and inspired by how much she can see with it. My only points to improve would be that are that there are not that many pre-prepared slides or sticky bits to make your own slides included.

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

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.

A great first microscope. Bought for 7-year-old, who loved looking at the ready-made slides. Needs a bit of patience to control the zoom but ok once she got the idea.

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.

Es todo lo que anuncia, buen producto, excelente para los pequeños que están aprendiendo sobre el tema

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

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.

De microscope il n a que la forme... Ultra léger tout en plastique des réglages qui n apportent rien il est impossible de voir quelque chose. Nous, avons même pensé qu il y avait une protection sur les objectifs que nous aurions omis d ENLEVER MAIS NON ! On ne voit que du flou. Et le livret est totalement en anglais Nul archi nul. Tellement déçue ! Je ne sais pas comment 61% peuvent mettre 5 étoiles à un tel naufrage

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.
