I am the nerdy uncle that is always trying to give the kids something that is educational but also fun. I wasn't sure that my 4 yo nephew would enjoy this as much as some of his other Christmas toys, but his parents tell me that it's the only one he still plays with. He's very enthusiastic about taking into the back yard and looking at EVERYTHING, not just bugs.

I've since bought 4 more for other children and they are always well received. It's convenient that it takes 3 seconds to show the kids how to use and they are off investigating all sorts of things for the next 1-2 hours.

I bought it for my nephew that lives in Fla. He is loving it.
A word of advice for those Moms or Dads that do not like bugs in the house
the kids will bring them in with this toy they play for ours just looking
at the hairs and feet of the bugs.

I bought this for my niece on her 7th birthday. She is absolutely the "outdoorsy type". She loved using the bug vacuum and then putting in the scope. The whole family got involved looking for bugs.
