If possible, have some pictures of the objects you are going to view. The children can then relate to the object they see in the eyepiece.
Have fun!

Thanks, great idea re the certificates.
There is no need for blue cards as it is not a school activity, we just happen to use school oval (and gym for toilet and power). The school principal is very supportive, her main concern was public liability insurance, but we have since clarified that with the Education Dept.
Cheers,
Bo
