Outdoor conditions can contribute to situations which can damage binoculars. Here, since they are, in effect, half the size of a regular pair of field glasses, better quality optics can be afforded, as the cost will be proportionally lower.
Kids use binoculars as toys and as learning devices. Pay close attention to the numbers that are printed on the binoculars or quoted in the ad. You'll need to choose the objective diameter for your binoculars.
You will need a magnification factor of at least 7, maybe up to 10 if you have a steady hand. Compact binoculars are an ideal first pair for children, they are easy to use and lightweight which means the kids get more enjoyment out of their outdoor activities, and spend less time moaning about having to hold those heavy old things your dad gave you. Compacts have objective lenses 25 mm or less.
Some of the binoculars have a greater close up focus capability. Keep a pair in your discount luggage, at the ready to give you a close up view of wherever you're going.
