well I have my new microscope and a set of pre-prepared slides... Once I set it up and learn to use it, I'll have completed my early scientific revolution larp trifecta: pendulum clock, telescope, microscope

My favorite toy was my 950x microscope, purchased when I was 5 from a school closing sale, kept through adulthood. Was also given _Hunting with the Microscope_ which was incomprensible til I was an older child, a quick browse now reveals it to be a charming little book.

Oh and now that you bring up time, I got the microscope ~39 years ago. 🤯 I also got an electronics kit around that time, where you build circuits with wires and springs, but didn't rediscover electronics until 2011.
