Have you ever wondered how a layer of glass could let people see millions of light years away? Or analyse teeny tiny strands of DNA? The answers lie in this highly impressive Scope Constructor kit. Build up to 28 microscopes, telescopes and binoculars from simple parts, with this awesome optical construction set. In doing so, you'll learn first-hand how lenses bend light and how they can be combined together to make images larger and clearer. With your final experiments, you could analyse wildlife, like plants and bugs, or you could look up at the stars and find Jupiter! The variety of lenses, tube lengths and body configurations would make the end-products truly customised, and also give your kids valuable scientific lessons without them even realising. A 60-page, easy-to-follow instruction manual is included, so even complete beginners can get involved with this eye-popping science kit.
