Cant see anythjng through lens
It’s so blurry, can’t see anything through the lens including all the samples it came with. It’s completely useless and such a disappointment.

We Spent an Hour Looking at Random Stuff — Amazing!
My niece and I went full detective mode with this microscope. Leaves, hair, crumbs — nothing was safe. She was fascinated by all the tiny details. We went outside, grabbed a few leaves, and my niece spent the whole afternoon studying them. It’s such a great way to spark curiosity.
