Educational Insights is a company I’ve worked with the past couple years, and they allow me to conduct reviews on toys they carry. Today, I am here to share GeoSafari® Jr. My First Microscope.
Before I share my thoughts with you I received GeoSafari® Jr. My First Microscope to review. I would like to let you know the thoughts in this review are all mine and my families.
Charlie has always been a explorer and loves to play in the dirt. Charlie also likes to draw and color and the past couple months Charlie has been making Robots out of anything he can find.
Now that it’s getting colder Charlie can’t go outside I’ve been looking for ways to keep Charlie inside. I had GeoSafari® Jr. My First Microscope put up for Christmas.
I went ahead and gave Charlie GeoSafari® Jr. My First Microscope early because this would keep Charlie busy in our home and off the electronics. I believe GeoSafari® Jr. My First Microscope will keep Charlie’s mind off going outside. Although we may venture out to grab leaves to examine under the microscope.
Every day as we walked back and forth to school, Charlie has begun collecting rocks, leaves and bugs for us to look through Once we finish Charlie and I draw out our findings.
I must admit our drawings has lead to a lot of laughter because I can’t draw to save my life? Charlie is always telling me to take art classes. Although if truth were none I’m pretty confident even Art classes wouldn’t help me.
Then the other day Charlie wanted his friend Damien to come over and play. I didn’t want to listen to another movie or hear them argue over the PS 3. I went and got out GeoSafari® Jr. My First Microscope and we had a little party examining things under the Microscope and drawing what we found. Once we finished we put on a play and acted out what we saw and also what we drew.
Once we had everything together, we invited Damien’s Nana over and put on a party for her. Roma loved the party and how I got them involved and off the PS3. Roma even asked if they could borrow GeoSafari® Jr. My First Microscope to show Tie her oldest grandson what we had been doing.
Roma and I begin to walkover to her house when our other neighbor Jo and his kids saw us and asked what we were carrying. I let Jo know it was a Microscope.
Joe asked what we were doing with the microscope. Charlie told Joe we were going to Roma to find things to look at under the microscope. Joe invited us into his home and found, even more, items the kids could check out.
All in all everyone in our neighborhood loved GeoSafari® Jr. My First Microscopeand said they would like to purchase this microscope for there families.
By hearing this, I knew GeoSafari® Jr. My First Microscope would make an excellent gift for the kids in the neighborhood for Christmas.
If you haven’t heard of Educational Insights, I suggest you check them out. Once you do come back and let me know what you and your family would like to have and from. Why did you chose those gifts.
