I hope to spend between $250 - $300. The few telescopes that I have seen described as good for children are from the USA and I cannot seemd to find a supplier in Western Australia or one that will ship here.
Please help as I am getting desperate!!!!

You could always go with a tabletop Mak! they are easy to use and small enough to move around with ease. However, they may be a bit out of your price range.
