This is not a toy but an actual scientific instrument equivalent to microscopes used in schools worldwide. An educational investment that encourages students to increase their science knowledge through independent study, My First Lab™ Microscope will be a useful tool for study throughout school years. Designed for use by ages 11 & up, this microscope is affordably priced, making it ideal for homeschool use.

We have upgraded our popular My First Lab™ Microscope to the ultimate educatinoal tool! The same great optics are now even more versatile on a new base with a rechargeable battery light source. The detachable AC power lead can be used to power the light or recharge the battery for portable use "in the field". Battery lasts for hour and can be recharged hundreds of times for years of valuable scientific research!
