The dye is toxic!!
My 10 year old kid played with the dye then we find out it's toxic to inhale.. why would you put toxic chemicals in a CHILDS toy!

Great Product for Price
This microscope is relatively cheap compared to other microscopes and works very well. It's really easy to use and I had a lot of fun experimenting with it. Although, it's hard to see bacteria. The only issue I have with this is that I'm missing the pipette, petri dish, and stirring rod when I got the microscope.

Great for home learning
We recieved this product in exchange for an honest review and we LOVE it. My daughter and my son (aged 8 and 6) have found it fasinating and it has prompted lots of questions and discussions. It is a great educational tool to have in the house and it is a great acivity to do together as a family. We will be using this for a long time.

Great First Microscope
My daughter has enjoyed using the GeoSafari MicroPro. She was eager to use it immediately, and I had to slow her down, so we could read the directions and discuss the care and use of the lens, slides and instruments. She did have difficulty focusing the lens initially, but finally got the adjustment correct and was excited to see the specimens on the prepared slides. The kit comes with 12 blank slides and she is eager to make her own. This microscope will be invaluable not only for her every day studies, but also for her annual science fair school project.

Great if you can help your child.
I received this product for testing purposes through Educational Insights. Overall it is not a bad product for the price. I did have issues focusing at first and it was beyond the frustration level of many of my students. This is not really a toy that can be handed to a child to use. They will need assistance and guidance with using it.

Nice microscope for kids!
This microscope is a great beginner microscope for kids. The biggest con we found was a lack of clear instructions and even my ten year old needed a nice amount of adult assistance to use it. Once we figured it out, my children of various ages 3-10 all enjoy using it and find it fascinating to look at the different slides. The older bunch loved creating their own slides. I recommend, especially for this price. I received this product in exchange for my honest review.
