I posted a while back about my 4 y/o son (Cole) who loves astronomy. Ya'll helped put me in touch with my local astronomy club. Thanks so much. My son is so happy. He loves going to the monthly meetings. He even enjoyed this last meeting and the presentation was about filters. I mean how boring should that be for a little kid...but he LOVED it. You also helped me find 2 planetariums in my area. I never even knew they were around. He's having a blast!!!

Anyway, he really wants a telecope and I'm gonna get him one for X-mas. My dad recently got him a little toy scope. It has a 30mm lens and 15xmag. It's really not practical for seeing anything but birds and the moon but Cole treats it with respect and asks to go look at the moon almost every night. So I've found 2 kids scopes that look good to me. Can you help me decide since I really don't know much except what I read online?

Here are 2 links to the scopes:
This one has a larger lens and focal length....and price tag (go figure)

This one has a smaller lens and focal length but I think would still be suitable for a young child....and is cheaper.

My son just wants to see the moon and get a look at some planets. So which scope do you think will be best?
