Create Working Electronic Circuits
Snap Circuits comes with over 30 pieces to create 101 different electronic projects. The pieces, which include snap wires, slide switches, an alarm circuit, a music integrated circuit, and a speaker, snap together easily on the included plastic grid--no soldering required. Each piece is numbered and color-coded to make identifying them easy. These components combine to create working circuit boards just like the ones found inside televisions, radios, and other electronic devices.

Simple, Fun Projects Let Kids Learn While They Play
With its easy-to-follow instructions, Snap Circuits gives your child a hands-on education in how electrical circuits work to run the everyday devices that they're familiar with. They'll also gain valuable lessons in building and in following instructions. The project manual includes large color illustrations and simple directions for each project.

The projects include a sound-activated switch, a musical doorbell, a voice-controlled lamp, a flying saucer, and a light police siren. With these projects, children will experiment with things like electric switches, integrated circuits, digital circuits, fuses, and the transformation of circuit sounds into other sounds.

Grow as You Go
Because the projects are arranged in order of complexity, kids can build on their skills as they progress through the manual. The lessons start out with a simple electric light and switch project that demonstrates how electricity is turned on and off with a switch. Further along, kids can put together a two-speed fan, create clap-controlled sounds, and more.

Design Your Own Circuits and Upgrade Your Kit
Once children have mastered several of the techniques introduced in this kit, they can use the components to experiment and create their own customized circuits and electronic devices. The Snap Circuits Jr. SC-100 can also be upgraded to the Snap Circuits SC-300, Snap Circuits Pro, or Snap Circuits Extreme with the purchase of a UC-30, UC-40, UC-60 upgrade kits, respectively. Kids will enjoy additional parts, manuals, and projects that'll take their kit--and their fun--to the next level.

My First Lab Duo-Scope Microscope

Lowest new price: $52.11
List price: $79.99
Brand: C&A Scientific
Model: MFL-06

The My First Lab™ Duo Scope offers you all the elements of an actual microscope, which may as well be used in an actual science lab. It brings the learning right in to your home or backyard and is designed for easy use by your budding scientists ages 9 and up.

My First Lab™ Duo-Scope

Dual COOL LED Illumination and

The best "TOY"microscope for scientists of all ages!

Learning can be Fun!
The greatest measure of an educational product’s success, is when the learning can be cleverly disguised as fun and games. That is exactly what this microscope has been able to achieve, time and time again. The My First Lab Duo-Scope assures you of many hours spent exploring an infinite number of both living and non-living specimens, far away from the TV and game consoles,as we as get you on the road to a wonderful world of science, education, adventure, and discovery.

WHY the Duo-Scope is the best…
This microscope, unlike others, offers each user the unique ability to readily switch between two basic modes of observation, allowing the scientist to view both microscopic specimens on slides, as well as lager solid objects, such as leaves, small rocks and bugs, quickly and easily. In the past, one would have required two separate instruments to achieve this; however with the Duo Scope, we have combined the features of a biological microscope and a stereo microscope into a single unit and have made it possible for the user to choose their desired mode, simply by flipping a switch.

With the My First Lab Duo-Scope Microscope, young scientists ages nine and up can examine slides and small objects, such as plants, coins, and insects. The Duo-Scope is a real scientific microscope that can spark a child's imagination and curiosity about the world. The Duo-Scope features Dual LED illumination for compound or stereo viewing, three levels of magnification, and laboratory accessories. It is battery powered, allowing for portability and use in the field.

With dual lighting, Duo-Scope Microscope can magnify both slides and solid objects. View larger.

See Hidden Worlds with Dual LED Illumination

With Dual LED illumination, the Duo-Scope is two microscopes in one. It can function as a compound microscope, where the light shines up from underneath for viewing slides, or it can function as a dissecting stereo microscope, where the light shines down for observing solid objects.

Kids and adults will be amazed by the detailed magnified images they will be able to see of everyday items. Whether bringing into focus the surface of a coin or offering a close look at a tiny insect's hairy legs, the Duo-Scope is designed to spark curiosity and learning through discovery.

Get Up Close with Three Levels of Magnification

The Duo-Scope uses real optical glass lenses to provide 40x, 100x, and 400x magnification objectives to view slides or solid objects from the 10x eyepiece.

The disc diaphragm, located directly below the stage, has six different apertures that allow various amounts of light to pass through to provide the right light for viewing.

Includes many accessories for hours of scientific research. View larger.

Includes Laboratory Accessories to Prepare Slides

The Duo-Scope microscope comes with five blank slides and laboratory accessories to prepare specimens. Four prepared slides are provided to get young scientists started. The accessories include slide labels, cover glass, a plastic dropper, non-toxic stain, forceps, lens paper, a test tube, a petri dish, and a straight teasing needle.

Battery Operated for "In-the-Field" Operation

Designed like a Professional Scientific Instrument

The Duo-Scope is not a toy and has the quality and build of a real scientific instrument, allowing kids to see the hidden perspectives that can only be viewed through a microscope. The Duo-Scope is easy to set up and operate, but parents are reminded this is a scientific tool and contains glass, microscope slides, and sharp instruments. Proper handling and parental supervision is required. Always follow the appropriate safety procedures.
