For $10 it is a good toy for a little kid who wants to do what Dora does. The only thing they could change in the design is for it to lock into the open position so it doesn't collapse into the less coordinated five year old hands.

I bought this for my 4-year-old daughter, thinking it would be a great companion to her Dora entertainment. The problem is that you can't see a thing with this. The view is very blurry and it is not durable. Within a few days, the smaller lens came loose and it is now shaking around inside the telescope. What a disappointment!

I got this telescope for my granddaughter who made a special request for one. Because of her young age, I got her this model, which is recommended for young children. However, it is only a toy. You can't really see anything clearly through the viewfinder. Very disappointing. I will buy a different model to give to her so her enthusiasm won't be spoiled by frustration.Safari LTD Telescope
