Product overview

The GeoSafari Jr. Talking Microscope from Educational Insights is built for preschoolers taking their first steps in science. Instead of focusing tiny lenses, children look through two eyepieces at large, full-color photographs and listen as the microscope tells them about what they see.

The set includes 20 prepared slides, each carrying three images, for 60 close-ups of plants, animals and everyday household items. Children can choose Fact Mode to hear more than 100 facts or Quiz Mode to answer questions, with narration by Wildlife Warrior Bindi Irwin. The standard version offers audio in English, Spanish, French and German, and slides store inside the microscope.

It works well in early-years science corners, where children can explore independently while practicing observation, listening and vocabulary. It runs on three AAA batteries, which are not included.

    MX2-AS Digital Microscope 100x–1600x (Wi-Fi, 4" touchscreen)

    The MatataStudio Digital Microscope MX2-AS pairs optical magnification with a digital camera so students can study the microscopic world on a screen instead of through an eyepiece. Its 4.3-inch capacitive display folds up to 135 degrees, and the microscope can be lifted out of its stand for handheld use indoors or outdoors. Learners can zoom continuously (about 9X to 72X on screen), switch between incident and transmitted lighting for solid objects or slides, and apply an on-screen color tint to bring out detail. Images and video are saved to 8GB of built-in storage, and Wi-Fi or a USB-C cable sends the live view to phones, tablets or computers, so a whole class can watch the same sample. The 2MP camera supports recording and measurement. The kit includes the microscope, MX stand, five prepared slides, two observation chambers, a USB-C cable, an exploration manual, two user guides and a storage bag, making it suitable for biology, geology and general science lessons.

    Microscope Set 100/450/900X – 36 pcs

    This Eastcolight microscope set (models 21361/21362/21363, available in blue, black or red) gives young scientists a complete starter kit for exploring cells, fibres, insects and other small specimens. The roughly 8.6-inch microscope offers three magnification levels, 100x, 450x and 900x, so students can move from an overview of a sample to finer detail. Alongside the microscope, the set includes a magnifier, tweezers, a dissecting needle, 12 blank slides, 12 blank labels, one prepared slide, five cover slips and two collecting vials, plus an instruction manual. Two LR41 button batteries are included to power the microscope. In the classroom, students can collect samples in the vials, mount them on blank slides with cover slips, label their work and compare observations at each magnification, building practical skills in preparing and examining specimens.

    Microscope Set 100/200/450X – 37 pcs

    This Eastcolight microscope set (model 21378) is designed as a first microscope for young learners. The compact optical microscope, about 6 1/8 inches tall, provides three magnification settings of 100x, 200x and 450x, suitable for looking at plant tissue, hair, salt crystals and similar everyday samples. The set comes with one prepared slide, seven blank slides, 12 slide covers and 12 blank labels, together with tweezers, a plastic pipette, a 3X hand magnifier and an instruction manual. (Eastcolight lists this set as 38 pieces including the manual.) Teachers can use it to introduce how a microscope works: students first inspect objects with the hand magnifier, then prepare their own slides with the pipette and tweezers, label them and compare what they see at each magnification level.
