Educational Insights GeoSafari Jr. Talking Kids Microscope, Preschool STEM Toy, Featuring Bindi Irwin, Microscope for Kids, Gift for Toddlers Ages 3+

Great for kids| Durable| Beautiful visuals| Clear Crisp audio My 4y/o kids are going to love this, I can't wait to see their reaction on Christmas! Btw this was meant for one of the twins but it's so cool I had to buy a second so there are no Christmas tears over this super cool, educational, and fun gift.

My 7 year old son and I love this. Educational and fun. Love the easy to follow quiz questions while looking at the realistic slides. Keeps the kids engaged while learning. 10/10

PROS: 1. First and foremost, the kid loves it, loves it, loves it. It's really the only talking toy I have found that has held this rambunctious 4-yr-old's attention independently for large chunks of time. 2. Appropriately sturdy and simple enough for 4-5 yr-old to manipulate without close supervision. 3. Good variety of slides - from insects to plants to such things as salt and blood cells. 4. Enough slides to keep occupied for a while but eventually the child will need to repeat, and that review and gaining of familiarity is when real incremental learning can take place. IMO, it's exactly the right number of starter slides. 5. Bindi, Bindi, Bindi!!! As the voice of the toy, her high young tone has an excited childlike quality, so my child completely took to this as 'playing with a fun friend' rather than being asked to sit still or learn something. Do I want to listen to her pitch for an hour? - maybe not so much, but it was genius for them to use her. Very effective for the kiddos. CONS: 1. The slides have a flat side and a grooved side and must go under the "microscope" magnifier flat side down or the notches don't fit in their slots to activate the sound. But you can't SEE the difference in one side vs. the other - you can only feel it. This can be difficult for a young child to perform and produces frustration when they're putting the slide in the right place but they can't get their pal Bindi to talk. I don't think this would be a problem for a 6-7 year old, but in the 4-5 age range, it's an issue.

Fun and educational BUT there are no other cards/slides available to purchase

First all the kids wanted to check this out - the 6, 4 and 2 yr old. It was a gift for the 4 yr old. It keeps her attention and gives great bite sized info and facts about each thing. Each slide has 3 versions/stages of the theme or item - ie: dandelion, butterfly, housefly, blood cells. Bindi gives info and facts about each of the three images across the slide as the slide is moved to each image. The slides have sets of teeth in them to go into the slot on the scope. If it's not quote seated all the way you might end up with Bindi telling you about a different creature - ie: we learned this when the snowflake slide started talking about the black widow spider. Not a flaw, just user error - so some kids may have trouble at first getting the slides seated and then they have to be lifted out and the teeth put in for the next image in the slide. Sounds more complex the way I'm explaining - the 4 yr old caught on just fine. Kiddo now peppers me with facts about spiders and red blood cells. Over all it is higher quality than I expected and I'm QUITE pleased with it and would definitely buy it again for another kiddo and definitely recommend.

Perfect blend of education and fun. We purchased one and saw the joy of our children. And now is a go-to gift idea. Lots to learn and do with this one item. The buttons are easy to use (large). The cards are easy to use (slide in and out). Lightweight. Batteries do last in this toy. We couldn't be happier with this product.

Very good if you little curious tots. great picture quality and comes with many slides, perfect size and weight, and the talking feature makes it more functional. Believe it or not, this product helped me teach 3 years 3-year-old son the importance of washing hands, as he always argues that he doesn't have germs on his hands until he saw his little finger under this microscope

Toy is as described. The slides don’t look very real and it only works with provided slides. For these reasons, my child got bored with this quite quickly. He preferred another microscope that doesn’t have pre recorded info because he likes that he can put real things under it and this one you can not.

Excellent quality and clear recorded voice. Bought this for my daughter last xmas but sadly once she has listened and saw all the slides, she wouldn't want to play with it anymore so that's just in about 2 days! But, I would still recommend it if you have toddlers. Great information!

Satisfaite de l'achat par lui-même mais dommage que la boite soit abîmée surtut quand c'est pour offrir !

Good for a birthday present. Would be better if it supports multiple languages
