If your young star gazer seems to have a fascination with the stars and planets, consider buying them a kid telescope.  Not a cheap telescope from the local toy store, but a real quality telescope that is made for real stargazing.   Be careful to choose a telescope that allows for optimal viewing of celestial bodies while providing a clear magnified view of your targeted galaxies.  A novice telescope that has these features will offer a more positive experience for your stargazer and heighten their interest in the night’s sky .

What Type of Beginner Telescope Should You Consider?

With a less complex and simple, well-crafted design, the dobsonian telescope model has been highly recommended by some experts as one of the best child telescopes available on today’s market.  Other experts believe that a more user-friendly dobsonian telescope is a better choice for novices.  In making your decision, a good source of info is the telescope user reviews found at many telescope online stores.  But, whatever your choice, select the kid telescope model that is tailored for new telescope users and one that can be set-up quickly and can be aligned and operates easily. While a  cannot offer custom or state of the art optics, ones from reputable manufacturers are generally quite satisfactory.  A word of warning though –  It is generally best to avoid “department store” telescopes.  These are generally of lower quality and designed for mass production at the expense of quality.

Why You Should Start with a Kids Telescope

The reasons we suggest that you start on a smaller scale is that you want to avoid the frustration of attempting to use an advance telescope without training and experience. A beginner telescope will afford you with a great number of opportunities to view the stars and planets while you learn the basics of stargazing.  Prices for a beginner telescope can be as low as $200 or as high as $2,500, but we would suggest that you look for telescopes in the $300 to $600 price range.

So, if your novice astronomer is ready to start on their journey to the stars and planets, take a “right”  at the Sea of Tranquility and fly yourself into deep space by visiting the Crab Nebula. Its really easier than you think, thanks to the strong magnification , precision optics and simple operating controls of the new telescopes for beginners .
