    Cork because you can see the cell walls
    You can take a swab of the inside of your cheek in your mouth and look at your cheek cells
    Bacteria from around the house
    Your Hair

    I think the most interesting thinig to look at is pond water. Get some water from the edge of a pond or swamp. Get some with some scum or algae in it if you can. You can also take some hay or old dead grass and put it in water for a few days and then examine that. You many find a bunch of little creatures in there.
