We spent some time this afternoon in Toys R Us looking at new items with our son. I had about as much fun as he did playing with the Eye Clops 200x T.V. screen magnifier. The thing is pricey at over $200, but you can see a flea on a flea with this thing. Looking at salt magnified at 200x is very interesting, but seeing Lincoln in the memorial building on the reverse of a Penny is way cooler.

Cool! The link you posted is for a smaller version? It costs a lot less!

When my oldest was younger, he loved all the scientific toys and we looked at it as being an investment. One thing I do wish we would have purchased is the Lego Mindstorm robotics set which we had considered. I think he would have loved it. Last summer, though, he got to attend a camp at a local robotics company- he liked it so much he may end up working there someday!

The way things are going, some of us may need a magnifier like that to read our scripures in the not-to-distant future...

cool stuff. Never know what it can spark in a child.

Jennifer, it's the same thing. Wow! It's hard to believe the savings are that much to purchase online.
