Jr. scientist A just got a microscope (thanks Arthi and Glenn!), so we've been exploring the microscopic world. He instantly noticed that there was something very telescope-y about this new device ("it has a focus knob!"). As with the telescope, I wasn't sure how much he would be able to see through the lens, so we played the "what do you see" game. We looked at some string (top right photo), which he described as "branches" - a pretty good description. We also looked at colored sugar (bottom right photo), paper, grass, salt, sandpaper, and a few other things. Jr. scientist A had a lot of fun, but this was another one of those experiments where he had to compete with the adults for a turn!
