Father of a future astronomer....

Hi,

I've signed myself into this forum for information as to how I can nuture my sons interest in astronomy.

He is 8yrs old this year and everyday he is reading books on space and goes on and on about space .......hubble , gallileo moon discovery, olympus mount etc...

I would like to encourage his interest and hence seek your views as to how I should go about doing that......

As a first, I hope to get a tool for him to view the skies at night. Would a bino suffice as a start? If so what do you recommend for something around $100?

I've seen the equipment mentioned in the forum and the prices are really beyond our budget for now......

Thank you.
