Being used to heavy stereo microscopes, I found this one shockingly light. But it works great. 20x may not seem like much but it is a good power for bugs, jewelery, and fabrics. The interocular adjustment fits my adult face, so it is not just for kids. View is clear, though you have to carefully center both eyes to see in stereo. Comes with a vinyl dust cover.

Bought this for my wife and four kids we are homeschoolers. The microscope seems robust enough; was surprised it weighs only a pound. But there is an apparent short in the battery compartment because the light will not turn off (have to remove one battery). In fact, the battery compartment immediately appeared quite cheap. It is advertised as a $300 microscope but it clearly is not. Because I bought it for about $50, I'm still happy with the purchase and I think I'll be able to fix the short. The light is nice and bright and the unit works for our intentions.

For a child's first microscope this is a pretty good choice. It is light weight but it also seems pretty sturdy. It doesn't do much at 20x but it does show bugs and rocks. I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my son. At eight, he thinks it's great. For me, it's so so, as I was expecting more detail.

It's super simple to use. I like items that have a paragraph on how to put things together. It's very easily put together so much so my son can do it with no problem. It takes a bit more skill (which he will gain in time) to focus it. It focused only by moving the top apparatus up and down by the knobs on the side. Pretty easy.

One does have to center the subject, but it has a guide in the form of a "light". Without the light turned on, it creates a reflect light in the form of three small dots on the sample so one can center the sample or the slide precisely where the subject can be seem. It has clips to hold the sample. The light, I feel, must be turned on to get the best optics.

It comes with a dust cover.

It is fun to use with my son and it does create quality time together.

I'd say that this is good for...maybe two years before graduating to a more powerful microscope.

My daughter asked Santa for a microscope. She wanted to look at bugs, rocks, etc.

This is exactly what she wanted. We're all having fun with it.!

fell for the if it was actually originally in the hundreds of dollars and dropped to the sale price, it must be at least acceptable for my 3 year old. That was where I went wrong first, I had to clean every piece because there was some kind of oil(?)grease(?)substance all over everything. Then the makeup on the microscope should have had them reduce the price even more due to its poor quality. Then, I realized that there were no slides or anything that we could look at. I usually try something for at least a week before I make decisions but with this microscope, I knew within minutes that it was not for my son at any age. We ended up going to Walmart and purchasing a microscope kit that was at a comparable price and had all the sample slides necessary for my son to find playing with it fun.

Buy 10" Handheld Brass Telescope w/ Wooden Box - Pirate Collection

Customer Ratings:

I was at first disappointed with this telescope, but then a co-worker, an ex-marine, showed me how I could focus by changing the length of the tube: I extend the tube all the way out, then kind of work it down a little until it's in focus. My co-worker unscrewed the different parts and showed me how it worked, and told me it was actually a pretty good quality little telescope! SO glad I talked to him, because I was just seeing a lot of fuzz, and couldn't focus, but now I can actually use it! Getting two for my nephew and niece for Christmas.

This is a functional, low power (3X or so) telescope, but is really more a novelty or display item. It seems to be fairly well built, with clear, undistorted optical quality. The main tube is covered with real black leather overstitched with a a cross stitch. The wooden box is nicely fitted and solid, lined with a blue velvet material with some brass inlays/appliques. The item I received had some small stubborn black tarnish stains on one of the brass tubes. The brass inlays on the box were very tarnished and seemed to be coated with brown stain or paint. I scrubbed and polished the brass and the item is presentable.

Honest reviews on 10" Handheld Brass Telescope w/ Wooden Box - Pirate Collection

It is nice--BUT-the 10" Telescope w/wooden box i had orderd; Hmmmmmmm, the 10" was 9.5" that there was a kick down and then the box it's shown in is not the one you receve when you get it. O it's wooden just the tops are not the same with the anker part has been changed ... So if your looking for something a little smaller than what the add says this is for you. I was told by customer CARE this is what they have so the gift from me to my son is there just a little less then what i hoped for, so ask B4 you hit submit to buy....Ask about what you are getting.

Learning Games Pizza Math Reviews

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $18.95

My kids wanted this board game, we ordered it (cost way to much money for what it is) but anyway

it is really fun game, teaches simple math to younger kids easily by counting the items on your pizza slices.

We play it quite a bit really, is constructed as best can be I guess when manufacturing something from cardboard.

Not so happy about the cost, with the shipping it was around thirty bucks, this game should retail around

ten or fifteen dollars, we had also bought "battleship" board game and that was 15.00 for a comparison. Over all

it is a fun & educational game our family enjoys.

Reviews of Quivering Crazy Solar Powered Bug Grasshopper toy

Customer Ratings:

I bought this for my daughter and my dog boomer. It turned out that boomer loves more than my daughter. Who knew?

For the price, I think the item is awesome. It is amazing how it works. I surely taught my daughter how solar energy works. I also learned that solar power is stronger than I thought before.

I have been using it for a while now and it has been working great. I think the quality of the item is great.

I am buying 5 more to make a crazy town of grasshoppers. It will be fun seeing multiple grasshoppers shaking.

I love this book. I will have a child with speech delays in my pre-k class this year and I cant wait to teach all the kids these simple signs to encourage him to communicate. After reading through this book I am confident that I can get the kids signing.

We love this book! It is a great beginning sign language book for young children. It has several pages of card-size illustrations with words and descriptions of how to do the sign. They are easy to copy and cut out for bulletin board and/or child's personal dictionary or to create sign cards. The drawings are black and white, clear, with a diversity of children, and very appealing to a young child. The chapters are thematic with lesson ideas. My daughter loves the book. I only wish there was more! My little one is learning sign to communicate and this book has been wonderful to engage her.

Best Melissa & Doug Lace and Trace Vehicles Deals

Customer Ratings:

My son is delayed in fine motor skills, and before he graduated from preschool his teacher recommended we work over the summer to help build his strength. William was five when I bought this set, but I wish I knew earlier that something so simple would help to strengthen his muscles. When he first started playing with this toy, he really struggled. In fact, it wasn't fun at all. I worked with him a lot over the summer, and in time he picked up the lacing skill.

At six, he doesn't fight "sewing" as he calls it, but it's not a favorite activity of his. The tracing aspects are the opposite of a typical stencil, which has a hole in the center, and one uses the inside edge. Tracing these panels is more challenging because kids are tracing around the panels, which requires more strength. William's had this toy for over a year now, yet it still looks new. There are a few scuffmarks on the panels, but that's to be expected. If you're looking for a compact activity for a preschooler, or a child with delayed motor skills check out this line of products.

Review of Rhythm Band Rockin' Rhythm Bag

Customer Ratings:

Although there were no product reviews for this set, after much research on the alternative options available for a kid's starter music set I took a chance and ordered it. We're very pleased with the contents of the "Rhythm Bag"! Nice quality and our 2.5 year olds love the instruments. The maracas are very sturdy, large and make a nice sound (ours are purple although the photo shows them as red, but it doesn't matter to us). I priced it out to buy similar items from Amazon individually in order to make our own set and this was a MUCH cheaper option. The fabric bag is great to keep everything together. All-in-all, it's a great starter set. We added a couple of harmonicas and recorders to the mix for more fun! Don't hesitate to try it for yourself.

The Rocking Rhythm bag is exactly as pictured. What you probably wouldn't know is how WELL everything is packaged. All of the instruments were neatly placed into labeled, individual bags..this was quite impressive. I'm very pleased with the delivery of the items as well as overall product quality. My 3 and 6-year old really enjoy playing with the instruments and are quite intrigued with them. I was skeptical due to the pricing of the set, but I took a chance...I'm very pleased with my purchase and will most likely order more as gifts.

This set is exactly what we've been using in our baby class, and it does the job. The rattles are massive, and the sand blocks shed a little when used, but at the price the selection and quality are very good. The block and mallet, the bells, and the triangle all have a very pleasant sound. The booklet with ideas for musical exercises was a great addition, and the storage bag is useful.

Colors vary despite the photo, the contents can be a mixture of blue, red and/or purple.

Buy Scott Joplin Ragtime Rage, Book 2

Customer Ratings:

This book is fun for kids in the Level 5 Alfred lesson books. One caveat, though: this book, Book 2, does not contain "The Entertainer" nor "The Maple Leaf Rag." My child was not familiar with any of these rags, so Book 1 might be more appealing.

This is a great cloth book! All of the illustrations are very colorful and the panda on every page is cute. Each page shows the panda in a different vehicle (ex.in a dump truck, a rocket, a race car, etc.) Every page has a fabric flap to lift or move. There are also "noisy" fabrics to touch. We gave this book as a gift to a one year old.

Bought this book for my one year old daughter to occupy her on a plane trip and it worked like a charm. Nice because the ball is attached so it can't be dropped. Very sturdily constructed. She's been playing with it for more than a month now and continues to be very interested in it. She'll pick it up on her own, bring it over to be read and then demand several repeat performances.

Best Perisphere And Trylon Games Space Exploration Mobile Deals

Customer Ratings:

My 4 yr old son received this from Santa this year.

Easy to install. Easy to put together. Has a decent amount of detail. The space-crafts rotate around at a slow speed. The earth lights up but it's a dim light so it's perfect for night-time.

My only complaint is the sound of the motor. It's a little too noisy for my taste. My son said it doesn't bother him and we turn it off when he falls alseep so I guess it's not that big of a deal. I still wish it was quieter. He also received the solar system version of this mobile from Santa, and that motor is quiet so I'm wondering if this one we got is defective? I don't know.

We have only had this less than a week so I can't comment on how long the batteries last. We only have it on for about 20 minutes at a time so I'm going to assume they last a decent amount of time.

This makes a nice addition to his room and he's happy with it. I would recommend this to anyone that has a child interested in space.
