We received a STEM Starter Kit: Smartphone Microscope from My First Lab to play with and review. Opinions are our own.
When I was asked if I was interested in the My First Lab STEM Starter Kit: Smartphone Microscope I was excited because this is a cool product for Andrew. He is a very curious kid and has been a bit left out of other reviews that we have done because he was too young. Andrew is the perfect age for this product. He can use his tablet and the smartphone microscope to discover the world around.
He took right to this product. It easily attaches to any smartphone or tablet with a cushioned clip. There is also a light source attached to the microscope. It actually can switch between an LED or a UV light. Then kids can magnify the world around them by 60X. The product even comes with slides with 15 different 3D specimens. Andrew went through many of them including the Pepper and then he added his own touches to the image that he took with my Smartphone.

We received a Nancy B. Microscope from Educational Insights for use and review. Opinions are 100% our own.
This Summer has been all about Science for Eva. She spent three weeks at the Children’s School of Science in Woods Hole and she has spent time with her Aunt Tara, a scientist in her own right. Eva loves spending time withe her Aunt and one of the things that she loves most is doing experiments with Tara. For most of the time that Eva was down on the Cape she used Tara’s room as her own and the first thing she did was set up her new microscope and prepare her own slides to examine. She used the journal that came with the microscope to explore.
The microscope is both inexpensive and solidly built. It is a great first microscope for Science minded children. It is part of Nancy B’s Science Club™ which includes many scientific tools geared towards young girls. Right now the microscope is on sale at Amazon.com for a very good price. There are amazing things that kids can see in the everyday world using this microscope. Eva was exploring all sorts of things with her microscope and even my sister was impressed with the microscope.
