Skywatcher kit lens any good or replace?

Hi Guys
First time poster long time viewer...
Have got my lad who is 9years old a 6inch skywatcher dob and it comes with a 10mm and 25mm kit lens which for most part does a good job.
Very impressed with the images
He can find and view saturn, jupiter, mars etc and most stars using the google sky map to find general direction and is really getting into it.
Question is i have never looked through a quality lens to see the difference so i would like to get 1 quality lense what would it be? Budget around $100

I would like a bigger image of planets so maybe a 6mm.
I have a gso barlow 2x on order, I see the gso lenses are only like $30 are they any good? should I be replacing my kit skywatcher lenses with them?
Thanks guys
Rav
