Binoculars are alright but I do agree with previous comments kids might get bored a bit quickly. Good thing though is that they can be used during daytime as well, so it's great for nature watching.
On such a tight budget it's gonna be really hard to get anything decent. If the budget can be stretched a little however there are some pretty nice options like the C90: I have this little scope and it's such a great little performer! I'll show details on the moon and the planets and can also see some daytime use. It can be mounted on a photo tripod if a proper mount is out of the budget. But were are talking around $300, so significantly more than the $100 mark mentionned by the OP.
