Review: Real beetle nice touch - Yes was impressed with product , a hit with 6yr grandson Review: Not bad - I didn't like them. I expected more ## Features - MOUTHPART, LEG, WING, ANTENNA: The 12 slides are carefully selected to demonstrate the interesting parts of different insects that children can appreciate. For instance, the digging leg of a cricket is distinctly different from the swimming leg of a water beetle because of their different functions. By observing the slides, children learn to appreciate different shapes and structures of insect and relate them to how the insect moves or eats. - OBSERVE, THINK, AND CONCLUDE: The set is also designed to instill scientific thinking to children. Firstly, the child is able to observe the parts. Then with the aid of postcards, the kid can consider how the insect uses the body parts. And finally, using the real beetle specimen, the kid can apply what he or she has learnt to draw conclusions about the beetle’s life. - CLEAR OPTICAL GLASS SLIDES: Samples are professionally prepared on optical glass slides for clear viewing. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0747LVYB4 | | Age Range Description | 12-100 | | Best Sellers Rank | 85,663 in Business, Industry & Science ( See Top 100 in Business, Industry & Science ) 73 in Lab Microscope Slides | | Brand Name | WhizKidsLab | | Colour | Clear | | Country Of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (10) | | Educational Objective | Observation Skills, STEM | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Weight | 0.31 Pounds | | Manufacturer | WhizKidsLab | | Manufacturer Part Number | F000243 | | Material Type | Plastic | | Minimum Age Recommendation | 168.00 | | Model Number | F000243 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Set Name | Insect Slide Set | | Size | C.
