Hi Ed
That's really great to know and even better that you're taking the effort to encourage him
Binos are a good start but not too sure what the light ones can reveal
Planets are a great startt and views of Saturn and Jupiter are bound to keep hum hooked
See if you can take him to your local astro society where he can look through some scopes
Books and videos are always good
You could also post his questions here
I'm not sure how good the small table top reflectors are, but they might be a good start for $99
I was hooked when I saw the moon through a 50mm refractor I got off eBay for $30 so there are a few options there, but I think his questions and curiosity need o be answered and a once a month trip to your local astro club would really help where he can ask and learn
