My DS has asked me to get a telescope for my 3 year old GD's Christmas present, because it is on her Christmas list. I think she'll be disappointed with one. I think she's too young to understand what she's looking at, and has too high expectations of what she'll see. ( Pun not intended)
Neither parent is interested in astronomy and I can't see them taking her out on a cold night to set up a telescope. It's pretty light polluted where they live as well.
I thought I would get a decent pair of binoculars for her and DS and DiL to use as well, so she can use it on holiday and on walks as well as looking at the moon and get used to looking at magnified objects.
Any tips for binoculars for a family to use? Is this a good idea?
