Review: My kids love these smartivity sets. - Great quality and a fun hands-on project! It was easy to build, educational, and kept my child engaged. A wonderful STEM activity that's both entertaining and rewarding.
Review: I would trust this in the hands of my child better than most telescopes. - It’s not often a kid’s toy impresses me. I had low expectations for this but it knocked my socks off. The tolerances were surprisingly tight. They need to be for a sturdy object. A little patience helped get the pieces together as if it was machine built. The lenses leave a little to be desired but do the job. It is comfortable for my 6 year old to use, fun, can take a knock or two, and fun for both adults and kids alike. There are ample spare parts.
