Where to buy good quality lab microscope?
-
My DD of 10 has been bitten by the microscope bug and she wants me to buy her a real microscope, not a toy one. I want to buy a good, working microscope, not too expensive. I checked in science centre and the microscopes there sell for more than 1000$. I want an inexpensive model, even if it is a used one or not so latest quality - so that if DD gets tired of it or loses interest, not much is lost.
Any suggestions from other kiasu parents? -
Perhaps can check the below

last weekend I was at Vivocity Toy Outpost and saw this product, it is a microscope lens which attaches onto an iphone or galaxy s3 via a special casing… it is called Smart Micro Scope.
bought one and tried it out with my iphone, quite fun! really crisp magnification of things you put under the lens!
quite a good product which satisfy curious minds without having the need to fork out a hefty investment! -

yup, you can say that since it does offer the magnification effect…
don’t get me wrong, this gadget is not a replacement for a microscope, i’m just saying it can do something similar at a lower cost…
i’m sure many parents out there have many expensive white elephants like microscopes lying around at home… so you might consider getting this gadget to let your kid play first… -
