Carson Optigami Microscope Kit for Children

The Optigami from Carson is a build-your-own microscope designed specifically for creative, hands-on children. Experience the joy of building your own microscope and actually using it with the Carson Optigami.

The exterior of the microscope is made of cardboard, and the fun part is that you will assemble it all by yourself. The manual provides clear instructions with pictures to guide you.

With a high magnification of 50 to 400x, you can see even the smallest objects up close. This microscope comes with 12 prepared slides, featuring small specimens like insects, allowing you to observe them in detail.

Optigami includes everything you need, such as a focusing wheel for sharp images and a dial to adjust the magnification. You can also turn on the built-in light for better visibility, which requires two AA batteries (not included).

Building and using a microscope is a valuable learning experience. The Carson Optigami is a fun challenge for school-age children, little tinkerers, and future scientists. It also offers hours of enjoyment for adults. You can look through the microscope with your own eyes and share the fascinating things you see with friends and family. Optionally, you can connect a smartphone to the Optigami.

This set makes a great gift. While it can be used by anyone, assembling the microscope is primarily suitable for children over 6 years old, with the assistance of an adult.
