    Sub $200 binos for kids

    I’m looking for suggestions on a pair of binos for my kid. Either 8x42or 10x42 but leaning towards 10s unless someone convinces me otherwise. I’d like to stay under $200 but do want something with decent optical quality so he will quit stealing my Meoptas. I’m open to suggestions on used models...

Which he did much to the dismay of 3 deer, 2 armadillos, 1 hog and a really spunky feral housecat. The 240 grain 44s were relatively low...
