  • Educational entertainment is hours of fun
Exceeded my expectations. Loads of great information that allows the child to pick what they learn next and gives options on how the information is delivered to them. Durable, cards are stored in the device, good size for little hands to use unassisted. Curiosity exploded after receiving this gift.

  • Great starter science toy for 4-year-old.
PROS: 1. First and foremost, the kid loves it, loves it, loves it. It's really the only talking toy I have found that has held this rambunctious 4-yr-old's attention independently for large chunks of time. 2. Appropriately sturdy and simple enough for 4-5 yr-old to manipulate without close supervision. 3. Good variety of slides - from insects to plants to such things as salt and blood cells. 4. Enough slides to keep occupied for a while but eventually the child will need to repeat, and that review and gaining of familiarity is when real incremental learning can take place. IMO, it's exactly the right number of starter slides. 5. Bindi, Bindi, Bindi!!! As the voice of the toy, her high young tone has an excited childlike quality, so my child completely took to this as 'playing with a fun friend' rather than being asked to sit still or learn something. Do I want to listen to her pitch for an hour? - maybe not so much, but it was genius for them to use her. Very effective for the kiddos. CONS: 1. The slides have a flat side and a grooved side and must go under the "microscope" magnifier flat side down or the notches don't fit in their slots to activate the sound. But you can't SEE the difference in one side vs. the other - you can only feel it. This can be difficult for a young child to perform and produces frustration when they're putting the slide in the right place but they can't get their pal Bindi to talk. I don't think this would be a problem for a 6-7 year old, but in the 4-5 age range, it's an issue. ... show more

  • Great educational kid item
First all the kids wanted to check this out - the 6, 4 and 2 yr old. It was a gift for the 4 yr old. It keeps her attention and gives great bite sized info and facts about each thing. Each slide has 3 versions/stages of the theme or item - ie: dandelion, butterfly, housefly, blood cells. Bindi gives info and facts about each of the three images across the slide as the slide is moved to each image. The slides have sets of teeth in them to go into the slot on the scope. If it's not quote seated all the way you might end up with Bindi telling you about a different creature - ie: we learned this when the snowflake slide started talking about the black widow spider. Not a flaw, just user error - so some kids may have trouble at first getting the slides seated and then they have to be lifted out and the teeth put in for the next image in the slide. Sounds more complex the way I'm explaining - the 4 yr old caught on just fine. Kiddo now peppers me with facts about spiders and red blood cells. Over all it is higher quality than I expected and I'm QUITE pleased with it and would definitely buy it again for another kiddo and definitely recommend. ... show more

  • Wonderful gift!
I’m a 90’s baby so I really got excited seeing that The Crocodile Hunter’s daughter, Bindi, would be narrating this device. It’s a great way to teach your kids while having fun together. The size is great for a small child to use it. The slides are large enough that you don’t need to worry about choking hazards or anything of the sorts. I’m glad I made this purchase. The only complaint I have that prevents me from giving this gift a full 5-stars is that the little compartment that holds the slides in it, is broken on our product. It doesn’t fully close, so the slides tend to fall out of the drawer. But other than that, we really love this product and I would definitely recommend it to a friend. ... show more

  • I'm not an advocate of tech toys, but this is an exception.
I bought two of these, one for my 4yo granddaughter and one for my 3yo grandson. Both of them love it. I can totally see this being a long lasting toy, one they'll grow into but is also usable now. They both were in awe and kept taking the microscope to people to have them look! The toy requires 3 AAA batteries. Bindi Irwin is a gem and highly relatable to little ones. Her excitement is infectious. She tells them facts about the slide, and there is a quiz option to see what they learned. From what I could tell, there isn't a "focus" function, which could be an issue for some kids. But when it gets time to upgrade, I'll look for that in a new model. The microscope is sturdy and should be just fine surviving toddlers. ... show more
