REVIEWS

Our product testers LOVED Educational Insights GeoSafari Sea-Scope™ - it opened up wonderful new worlds for them to explore. Not only could they solve the big mystery of what lies beneath the surface of the water, they could magnify spiders from a safe distance of 4-5 feet and faraway objects like birds with equal clarity.

And that's not all - a temperature strip and ruler helped document discoveries made by scientific observation, and the attachable underwater Aqua Light™ flashlight improved visibility when the water was murky.

Aqua Light takes two AA batteries (not included).

Totally engrossing for budding scientists ages 6 and up.

• Magnify from a safe distance of 4-5 feet and faraway objects with equal clarity.
• A temperature strip and ruler helps document discoveries and attachable underwater Aqua Light™ flashlight improves visibility.
• Aqua Light takes two AA batteries (not included).
• For ages 6 and up.

My kids love this toy that really works! We have enjoyed observing the underwater creatures at our favorite lake and cant wait to use it at the tide pools! The only thing I am not wild about is that the flash light is removable--my son keeps taking it apart and losing it! It is a nice feature that is important to get the most out of this product.

I bought this for a 6 yr old birthday gift. The flashlight broke within days and the telescope itself was hard to use. I had trouble adjusting it to see anything, so for a child it was near impossible. For the price, I would expect a more quality product.

My son has a hard time using it correctly, he is 7, I don't think it magnifies enough and the light batteries have to be taken out after each use or they burn out. Water gets inside it too easy.

good toy

By Amanda
from Spartanburg, SC
Comments about HearthSong Sea-Scope:
My 5 year old daughter really likes this toy. You can see underwater and the flashlight works well. The eye peice extension is a bit wobbly, but we just leave it off most of the time and its fine. It is a great toy that also is educational.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
