As a kid I always wanted a nice microscope. So, to vicariously live out my dreams, and because maybe it is good for homeschool science, we got the kids one as a Christmas gift. Today they are really getting into it. We found some dead spiders and other things around the house and the kids are working on making slides. Super cool!
This particular microscope came with an adapter to help smartphone cameras take pictures through the viewers, so if we get some good shots I will try to post them.
Adding a few pics that turned out well
