Q: are you supposed to see two side by side images?

submitted by cld - 3 years ago

  • A: Hi! You are only supposed to see 1 image when you look into the Talking Microscope, however the microscope was designed for kids’ eyes and the pupillary distance is different for kids than adults, so it might not come 100% into focus for an adult but it will for a child. I hope that helps, please reach out to our customer service team if you have an issue with your GeoSafari Jr. Talking Microscope from Educational Insights. They can be reached at GetHelp@EducationalInsights.com.

    Purchased for my granddaughters kindergarten graduation. It was well received and sparked some inquisitive questions. Her mum has since shared she is engaged and uses it often. The only con is you are unable to purchase additional slides

    Photos/Film in Slides Not in Correct Position

    The slides are slightly "off" .. you cannot see the entire slide through either eye. When you look through, you see two images but neither are centered in the eyepiece.

    Wonderful educational toy for a young scientist!

    My granddaughter loves science and she went through every slide as soon as she turned it on. It is so well done and Bindi's enthusiasm is wonderfully contagious. Please make additional slides, I will be purchasing them as soon as they become available.

    No additional slides?

    I have bought this for my very inquisitive 6 year old grandson. He loves anything to do with Science and Nature so a perfect gift for him! A bit disappointing to say the least that you do not market additional slides for ongoing education and capturing users imagination. I know he would use this time and time again if additional slides were available and we would be happy to continue purchasing them. It's a problem others have flagged up too. It let's the product down a little.

    Doesnt work

    This doesn’t work. It says for example “you picked a fly” and the picture is of a bee. The full slide doesn’t show in the camera either. Poorly made product.

    Great microscope for your young learmers!

    My science minded grand daughters loved this microscope! I did too! There are several slides and the microscope talks once inserted giving educational information. My girls loved viewing them and listening over and over to what they said. I recommend this for your young learners!

    Please, please make more slides!

    This is an awesome gift- especially because you can change the lanugage! But please, please, please make expansion sets of slides! My 4yo no longer plays with it because it's just 20 slides and he exhausted all the facts after a few weeks. I would gladly pay more for 25 or 50 more slides in an expansion pack.
