It offers a hands-on assembly experience that teaches the fundamentals of optics, lens magnification, and refraction. Lightweight (172g) and durable, it encourages STEM learning by connecting abstract math concepts to real-world applications. Highly rated (#20 in Explorer Toys) and perfect for young explorers eager to discover the cosmos.

## Description

Smartivity Telescope coolest way to learn fundamentals of optics. Helping children connect the abstract mathematical concept to real world benefits. Designed for young explorers and adventurers. The retractable mechanism allows your child to adjust the focus. Allow you to learn the fundamentals of lens system based magnification.

Review: 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.
Review: This is definitely an addition to enthusiastic kids' collection. It gives an opportunity to assemble and learn the aspects of making a telescope in person. All that's needed to makes the telescope is in the pack and should definitely entertain the child. Expect the resolution/capacity to be limited given the cost and scope but for budding enthusiasts, it definitely works.

Bought as a gift for my son. He enjoyed putting it together, had some difficulty with getting smaller pieces away from wood, but overall did well on his own. He had fun putting it together and enjoys using it now.
