Just use the 25mm eyepiece that came with your scope. Using that you will see heaps.
Don't rush into getting a kit of eyepieces. IMHO they are not a great investment. My scope came with a set of eyepieces similar to the kit and I only used the 32mm and 25mm ones.
Once you have decided to continue in the hobby then look at premium eyepieces, when you will get valu for money.
Just so it is clear, eyepieces come with 2 measurements, the focal length (usually in mm) which is the power of the EP (shorter focal length gives more magnification) and barrell size which is in inches, usually either 1.25" or 2" thought there are some 0.965" ones around. This purely refers to the physical diameter of the barrell taht you insert in the focuser.
Often longer focal length eyepieces have 2" barrells. With plossls that is ones above 25mm.
Try and get to an observing night, best way to learn.
