great slides by M. Fields 5 Stars
May 14, 2009
This is a great collection of slides. My daughter got a microscope for her 8th birthday and she used her money to buy these slides and they are a great well rounded collection. She has really enjoyed them.

Too warped to focus well. by kalanamak (Pacific NW) 1 Stars

Go with "bigger kid" prepared slides. You have to be there to help the little littles with the scope, anyway.

Good first slides for inquisitive youth. by sarajan (California) 4 Stars

I purchased this group of slides along with a microscope for my grandson for Christmas. He is very inquisitive and this has sparked his creativity to make slides of his own. He enjoys this gift and includes his younger siblings in his discoveries.

Inferior product by J. Strickland 1 Stars
March 28, 2009
The inferior quality of the mounting and preparation of the slides made these almost useless with a microscope. These seemed like they were hastily prepared and never inspected. The educational value is questionable and likely to frustrate any student that uses them.

You get what you pay for by ESchool 3 Stars

48 specimens for less than $[...] bucks. That's less than 50 cents a specimen. I wasn't expecting a lot for my money and I didn't get a lot either. There's a reason why these slides are in the "toy" section. They're good enough, for the price, but certain not high quality. The better your microscope (both top and bottom illumination is really necessary for the insect specimens), the better your experience.
