Christmas is a Coming

[katfish16]

Ok, as we all know Christmas is really not that far off... Cathy and I want to get our grandson a telescope, he loves looking at the moon and stars..
Can anyone suggest a telescope that would be usable by a 6-7year old. Of course he would have help from his father. Not looking at spending a fortune since he is only 6 and we don't know how long this is going to last. Any help or suggestion would be appreciated...:yes:

They have out there a telescope that hooks to a lap top and assists you in finding the correct stars and constellations. Last I looked they were about 200$. They are really nice.

minimum 50 power. 200 is a goo one I can see the rings on Saturn with 200 power. Straight are easier to use than Refractors. (mirror ones )
