Teach your youngsters microscopy using the LabZZ M3 Microscope Kit from Levenhuk. The kit contains a cordless, battery-operated microscope and a 94-piece experiment set, containing prepared slides, accessories, handling tools, and a screen projector. The microscope closely resembles a real lab microscope in its construction and function and features three objectives on a rotating turret, a square stage with two clips and a rotating illumination drum with a mirror on one side and an incandescent lamp on the other. The incandescent lamp illuminator requires two user-supplied AA batteries for operation. The scope's 10x eyepiece and three objectives provide a magnification range of 300-1200x, which is high enough to see microbes. For ergonomics and comfort, the metal frame is arched in the back so it can serve as a carry handle. Another highlight of this kit is the included reflective screen projector that attaches directly onto an eyepiece and can cast images (with room lights turned off) on white screens or walls.
