Title: Sure to delight a kid....
Product review: All three of my kids love this - 11, 9, and 6. They love the fact they can use it to magnify things in front of them, or can flip it and see things from a distance. They like how compact and light it is, and I think it reminds them a bit of Jack Sparrow's scope in Pirates.My own thoughts are that the magnifying capabilities are pretty good close up - you can see nice detail on a bug, for example, but it is very difficult to see things in the distance clearly. Also, it would be nice if you could twist the scope closed rather than just push it in - it will just slide right open again if you hold the scope upside down. Finally, I think for kids a thick cord to wear around the neck rather than a pen clip would be more useful.However, my daughter really treasures this little scope and it was well worth the ten dollars or so I spent on it...
