I purchased this for my 7 year old son. We have all had fun with it. We'll take the bug container and the tools and go out in the yard on a bug search. This is a great starter kit. The bug container is a little small, depending on how many bugs you find. We had a worm, 2 spiders, 3 centipeds and 3 potato bugs in it all at the same time, they did have plenty of room. But it's small enough to sit on the window sill in my kitchen, away from little hands who would let the bugs loose in the house. My 5 year old, 3 year old and even 22 month old have enjoyed watching the bug, too. The tool kit my boys are so excited about using. They like all the attatchments. The binoculars I don't think actually work too well. But my children still have been so happy to have them and have had a lot of fun with them.
My kids love these binoculars. I was worried about them being too flimsy, but they are not at all. They are well made and very fun. My kids love that they can listen as they explore with these. I personally love that it also have an adjustable volume dial and a breakaway safety neck strap. These would be great for an outdoor adventure like the zoo or park. I was given this product to try for free however this review is my own personal opinion.
So these were pretty cool. They magnify really well and the speakers let you hear sounds too. I had to put in batteries but that was easy. They are also pretty durable. My girls dropped them a couple times. But once they started using the neck strap to keep them on, it was better. They loved the bright colors too. Definitely great for taking on walks. Now the walls aren't so boring to them. Fun and educational. Definitely recommend.
Packaging left something to be desired. Seal was broken, box lid had a hole and tear in it. Product appeared to have been tossed in the box with out any form of packing. Audio quality from the mic is kind of underwhelming but binoculars appears to work fine for what they are. Definitely appears to have been a used product but there was no mention of this when I ordered it.
