I decided on the Swarovski 10x25 CL-P. I really like these except for the fact that they don't come with lens caps or rain guards. I let my 2 year old daughter try them and she must have glasses for about 20 mins straight. She enjoyed them so much that I bought a pair Bushnell Powerview 8x21. These are actually dreadful. I can't believe these exist. The telescope on my kids playground is leaps and bounds above these binoculars. So, I decided to head to the store and look for something semi-decent and wound up buying her a pair of Pentax AD 8x25 WP. These are great for the price. Point is, I wound up with three pocket binoculars in the span of a few days. Now I can't wait to go birding with my family!</blockquote>
