Product Has So-so Performance

2008-04-04
My 8 year old son purchased this product with his allowance. The fingerprint dust does not work - it does not dust on and show fingerprints and therefore you can't lift the prints with the pieces of clear tape. I am very disappointed that a company with such a good reputation for quality products would sell a fingerprint kit that doesn't lift fingerprints. I called customer service and they sent another bottle of fingerprint dust but it didn't work properly either. If all you want to do is make ink fingerprints, buy it. Otherwise, try another product.

Pretty good little microscope

It is a good children's home use microscope The magnification is good up to 400x It sure is fun for my kids. Seems pretty sturdy too. It only has plastic slides though and so I will have to buy more glass, the plastic get scratched up so easily. The kids really like thinking up things to look at and checking them out. It doesn't have a case of any sort unless you save the box which I didn't you need to find somewhere safe to store. Overall a good starter microscope.

Love it.

My son has had lots of fun playing with this toy. We all had a lot of fun with it and it is a nice quality item. I love the educational toys my kids actually like too. The thumbprint ink doesn't come off the kids fingers easily. We found this out on New Years Day when all my little nephews and nieces got their fingerprints made. They all had black thumbs for the day!

My son loves this!

I got this as a Christmas present for my 10 year old. Before this, he was only into his GI Joe action figures. But after he got this he's been fingerprinting everything in the house.

The kit comes with a black light and some ink that's only visible under the UV light. He asked me to set up challenges for him so I used the ink to write an "invisible" treasure map with such things as "Find 3 objects in the living room marked with an invisible fingerprint".

Plus, the UV light is fun to play with on it's own. You think your house is clean, and then you see glowing stuff with the black light. I don't know what it is, but I'm going to have to get some industrial strength cleaner, LOL. Don't get this if you're a germaphobe. ;-)

I think it's a great educational toy for kids AND it lets this me play actively with my son. It's so much better than sitting in front of the TV!

	Dora the Explorer Mr. Face Plush Backpack Review: My daughter is a big Dora fan and uses this backpack to carry around her favorite toys and books, which is why I gave it 5 stars for educational value. My friend's daughter has it as well, and love hers too. We've had it 6 months now and it's holding up just fine. The map opens up for an added bonus. My daughter likes to wear it and sing the backpack song from the show.
	Star Wars Episode III: Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet Wow, do I ever wish they had this out when I was a kid! I bought it, and my wife, kids and I have all been playing with it. It has a chest box with several buttons that plays about 5 of Darth's quotes from the movies, or you can switch it to voice changer. The voice changer is fun! It has 3 different levels of depth for changing the voice. ... A must for Star Wars Geeks!!!!
