Holiday Gift Guide - Health Song Deluxe Microscope Review & Giveaway


 This holiday season, I was determined to find my children some gifts that aren't going to get thrown in the toy chest. I also want something educational. There's no way to avoid a video game or two, but at Heath Song, I found the kind of gifts I can feel good about giving my children. They have science kits, art kits, magic kits and more. These are the kind of toys that expand your child's mind and imagination.





For our review, we picked out the Deluxe Microscope. This toy is awesome! Its not a cheap imitation. It really works. It comes with all kids of cool accessories, like slides with different animal fur, collection viles, dissection tools and more. The powerful scope really let you get in there and get a good look at things.  Its so much fun, that my husband and I were still fooling around with it after the kids went to bed. Its amazing seeing what things are made of, and a real learning experience for parents and kids.





This is only one example of hundreds of amazing fun and educational toys for all ages you can find at Hearth Song. If its on your Christmas list, you can probably find it here. Your holiday shopping isn't complete without a visit to Hearth Song. While you're visiting, make sure to enter their sweepstakes for a chance to win a $200 gift certificate!  And check their clearance section for great savings on already low prices.
