Customer Reviews
Nice present
We have talking microscope. It's great.
Now we are waiting for next occasion to surprise our 5 and 8 y.o. grandsons.
My almost-4-yr-old loves it
My son has been asking for this since last Christmas This year we bought it for him and have no regrets. He is fascinated by the slides and retains a lot of the information. The toy is reasonably well-constructed, but we have only had it for a few weeks, so I can't say for sure how well it will hold up to the abuse the kids give it.
could get boring
The removable telescope does not have good focus. Although the included slides are educational, I don't think kids will want to listen more than once. Also there are not enough "scientific" slides; too many pictures of animals.
