Read All Reviews for National Geographic Series 50mm Alt-azimuth Telescope

However, it's not very easy for my 11 year old to use. It's hard to get it focused correctly for reviewing planets and the moon. My son enjoys using the different lenses but he could use some help learning how to use the focus option. It also did not include a lot of instructions so that would also be helpful.

I like it. Now to figure out how to get my daughter to like it.

This is a real bargain. Great for a child's first telescope. It has adequate power and clarity. I like that it is designed as a traditional tripod unit. It reminds me of my first telescope over 50 years ago. My grandson loves it. I banged my head a few days ago and saw stars. This is a much better way to explore the heavens. :))

I finally asked my granddaughter if she liked her telescope and she said she loved it.
