Hello from New Hampshire

#1 Post by krame » Thu May 07, 2020 12:34 am

Hello All!

I've just registered after lurking for a few days.

I am here to find more about stereo microscopes. Given the pandemic, I am looking for new ways to engage my 5 year old daughter and I really think a stereo microscope could open up another little world of exploration. She loves playing in the dirt, finding bugs, and "treasure."

I'll try and restrain myself from jumping right into the classic "What should I buy?" topic until I poke more around here.

Stay safe!

Mark

A stereo microscope is a great choice for introducing young kids to microscopes. Bugs, rocks, leaves, trash, pond muck, skin, fabric, paper, salt, electronic devices and many other things look interesting under a stereo microscope. It will be a great tool to boost your daughter's innate curiosity. Good luck with your search.
