Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Lets kids study their catches from two 3x magnified views: above and below. Features inter-active packaging.

Product Description

4 years & up. Keep your creature for a short time, then let it go. This bug viewer allows children to see the bug two ways, from the top or from the side. It is watertight, so children can view tadpoles or small fish. The peeper is escape proof and won't break or tip over. Great for show and tell. Comes with a beetle replica.

These Creature Peepers are wonderful!! Our 4-year-old just loves his! Before we had this, he was always bringing his newly-found "friends" into the house. Yuck!! Since buying the Creature Peeper, he still brings his 6 and 8-legged "friends" into the house- but now I am much calmer about it! He loves to catch all sorts of bugs and study them through the magnifying scopes in the top and bottom of this toy. Great fun for curious children!!

This review is from: Insect Lore Creature Peeper (Toy)

I purchased this product for my 4 year old and he was thrilled when it arrived, we went bug hunting almost right away. My only complaint is that the receptacle detaches very easily so my clumsy 4 year old would release the bug without examining it yet...he'll learn though. Overall we're happy with it.

I got this along with a bug book because my boys, 4 and 5, have started expressing a lot of interest.

What's to say? The Peeper does a great job of displaying captured critter magnified from both above and below.

My minor complaint would be that the top piece doesn't fit as snugly as I would like. I added some tape around the edge to make the top less likely to come off when inconvenient.

Overall a great toy and has been holding up well so far. Approx 2 months.
