Description

Discover a whole world of itty-bitty wonders that are invisible to the naked eye! This complete introductory microscope and biology kit unlocks the microscopic marvels that are all around us and reminds you that some of the most amazing things come in the teeny-tiniest of packages.

Become familiar with the ins and outs of how your microscope works as you observe eight prepared specimens. Investigate different types of plant and animal cells. Get an up-close look at the structure of a pine tree stem. Learn what makes up your cotton shirts and socks, and zoom way in the cells in a layer of onion skin. Observe the unique and intricate patterns of a housefly, dragonfly, and bee’s wings, as well as of a bird’s feather. 

This high-quality microscope features 80x, 360x, and 720x magnification and a durable plastic body, an aperture wheel to control the resolution and depth of field, and bright LED illumination for crystal clear images. Use the included dropper, vial, tweezers, and other accessories to collect your own specimens, then add them to your STEM toolbox to aid in future explorations. 

An eight-page illustrated guide provides color and context to your observations, while exclusive bonus audio from Wow in the World’s Guy Raz and Mindy Thomas delves deeper into the science of living things.
