There are all sorts of things that kids can do with a
microscope. We send out a page with the Analyt for kids. I
would be glad to send you a copy. It includes such things as
disgusting bugs eyes, cat poo and parasites, etc. Kids love it.

We also have a wide variety of microscopes that are of the very
highest quality, and others that parents can afford.
