I'm in the process of getting ready for school to begin (because I'm
starting to have nightmares about not being ready) and I took a field
trip to the Alpine Surplus Warehouse. A wonderful place where teachers
in our district send the thing they are no longer using for other
teachers to snag (or for the district to sell). Sometimes you can find
wonderful treasures there: like this student microscope. I tried it out
with my three year old. We put a bug on it and it worked beautifully! We
magnified the bugs multifaceted eyes and hairy body. I can't wait to
put it in the science center!
