"The Miniscope is a hit! My kids are obsessed with exploring everything up close—perfect for sparking their curiosity. A must-have for any young scientist!"

Sarah M. | Austin, TX

Good question! The Miniscope works by having 2 curved lenses inside, precisely at the right focal lenght for maximum magnification! 

By adjusting the distance between both the lenses but also the object itself, you'll be able to get a sharp, close-up image. The distance between the lenses are adjusted by turning the 2 black wheels, one at the very top and one a bit further down.

And the distance to the object itself can be adjusted with well.... your hands! And yes, we can assure you it's much better than a magnifying glass!😅

The Miniscope can zoom 60-120X!

The Miniscope is suitable for children between the ages of 3-12.

But we've seen some child-geniuses as young as 2 years old being able to use it, although with some assistance!

      Questions? We've Got You Covered

      We would say it's absolutely worth it, and our customers would probably agree!

      It's a bunch of fun and super versatile. It can be used at home, in the backyard, on forest walks(our favorite!) or even bring it with them to school! On top of that you can look at basically anything you want!

      It's an exciting approach to learning, which oftentimes can feel dull or boring when learning it through a textbook.

      What do you know, maybe you have an undiscovered scientist running around at home ;)

      Once an order is placed, our team will carefully collect your items from the clouds and package it with hugs and love, so please allow up to 48 hours for our team to pick and pack your order. Your package will then gently be sent via our shipping suppliers, which usually takes 6-12 business days.

      Not really, the entire chassis is made of Premium ABS Plastic. And the glass lenses inside are extremely thick and well protected. Safe to say it's super durable, as long as your little ones do not try to dance on it for a long time.

      The glasses won't have any impact on the microscope's focal length whatsoever. And you won't have any issues of the glasses being in the way while using it as well, just make sure not to drop them while looking down!

      The standard Miniscope and a manual are always included. As of now we also throw in an additional wrist strap, but only as far as supplies lasts!
