My little one loved this. It is indeed fairly basic,but I think it was just right as a starter for my 5 year old.

This product is made very cheap. The test tubes are tiny and the microscope is more of a toy than a real microscope. The experiments included are great,though. I would spend a little more money and get something you can still use next year.
