For the budding science guy or gal, the Eyeclops Bionicam could be one of the best toys ever. This is also a good toy for kids who are simply curious and love to explore the world around them. One Eyeclops Bionicam review said that it was difficult to get kids to put the toy down. The reviewer said her son played with it so much, he was even often looking at her with his Bionic eye! That is quite a feat for an educational toy. The longer kids use it, the more they learn. Parents love to see their children learning, and when they start to love learning, that’s even better. On a cognitive level, this type of activity is much better for kids than long hours spent in from of most video games, and it is lots of fun, too.
The Bionicam is like a microscope that can also take digital pictures. Children can look at any object close up, at magnifications of 100x, 200x, or 400x. They can look at it as long as they want to with the device’s LCD viewfinder screen, and then take a digital picture of it. But the fun doesn’t end there! The picture can then be viewed on the screen of any TV, and with the included USB key, children can email pictures of their magnified discoveries to friends and family. According to Eyeclops Bionicam reviews, the pictures are good quality and fun to look at, and the email well too. The software is easy to use, and installs in just minutes.
The Bionicam is powered by a battery pack, and Eyeclops Bionicam reviews seem to be in agreement that it lasts for a reasonable period of time. However, it may be a good idea to order an extra battery pack when you buy Eyeclops Bionicam, to avoid any waiting time while the battery is recharging. The battery pack is especially handy because it allow the child to take it anywhere. Kids can look at everything in the car on a microscopic level, so they’re unlikely to care whether or not “we’re there yet”- they’ll be too busy exploring to notice how much time has gone by.
While it is a toy and not a real piece of scientific equipment, it is a great toy to get the kids interested in science. They can look at anything super close up, from the hairs on their arms to the ants in the front yard- even their siblings’ noses! Everything looks different magnified several hundred times, and kids can see the little details in everyday objects that can make them realize there is a world of cells at work on a level that is not visible to the naked eye. If your child should decide he wants to know what a potato chip looks like close up, the Eyeclops Bionicam can make a simple chip look like a rough mountain fit for climbing. Kids will start to wonder what everything looks like close up. The best part is that the Bionicam can be used indoors and outdoors, so that kids will never run out of things to look at.
One Eyeclops Bionicam review says that it is best used by a child between eight and fourteen years old. As with any other device of its kind, it can be damaged by rough or careless handling, so it’s best used by kids old enough to understand this. That said, it is built durably enough that as long as the child is not throwing it against the wall, it should stand up well to normal use. This is a very good thing, because it is likely to get a great deal of use.
