A wonderful way for younger children to foster an interest in science and the world around them, the GeoSafari Jr Talking Microscope is brightly coloured and robust enough to deal with what a child will throw at it. The set comes with 20 prepared slides which show 60 images of animals, plants and household items. They are easy to view thanks to the squint-free dual eyepieces which provide 5x magnification. Using the buttons on the back of the Microscope your little one can listen to facts about the slide or use the quiz mode; both of these settings feature the voice of Bindi Irwin. When play is over the slides pack away into a special drawer on the back of the microscope for easy cleanup.
