And it depends on whether your microscope is a dissecting or compound microscope. Just put anything you can think of under there and observe away! Leaves, insects (or insect parts), lizard or bird droppings, fabric, pond water.... the possibilities are endless!

Here's a link to a lesson plan for basic microscope use, click on sci06.txt for the individual lesson.

Have fun!!
