About this toy

Little Lab is a real optical microscope for children who want to see the small world around them. It has a metal body, glass lenses and three magnification settings: 100×, 400× and 1200×. An LED light shines up through the slide, and a second light from above helps with solid objects such as coins and leaves. The kit includes five prepared slides, ten blank slides with covers, tweezers, a dropper and a small case for samples. The guide suggests simple first observations, such as salt crystals, a hair, an onion skin and pond water. Most families find that the lower settings give the clearest images; the highest setting needs careful focus and practice.
