What great joy it will be for us if our kids will take on great love on science, more so if his choice is astronomy, and pursue such passion relentlessly, choosing this science as his field of work later on in his life. We can help them go into this path by giving them their own astronomical telescope.
You should know how it is the first time you held up your refracting telescope to the skies – it was such an amazing moment. Now you want your child to have the same experience, and hopefully also pursue star gazing and the study of the heavens even if only a hobby.
First, if your own refracting telescope of your childhood years cannot be used anymore, you need to buy one for your child. An important advice in buying him his first astronomy telescope is this: never focus of the magnification of the scope, as this is not important in determining the reliability of a telescope.
The more important feature when you buy one is the scope’s diameter, or what is called the aperture – this provides the quality of images and pictures that a telescope can give you. You will have to choose the largest aperture over the strongest magnification anytime. Surely, the kid of space images that your child will get from a telescope with the desired aperture will awe him to no end.
You must know how kids are, they can be so hyperactive and sometimes lack concentration that they make unnecessary movements around the telescope, affecting its stability, even damaging it if in case it gets toppled down. Therefore, when choosing a telescope for you kid, you must think about its mount. Choose a model that has the most stable mount. Pass up on one which you think is a wobbly type.
