Pink binos, that's a great idea! I find that I reinforce my son's hunting/fishing interests a lot, I need to find ways to do it for my daughter too. She likes pink.
I'm not sure she understands that the bird is not called "grouse nuggets" but she likes them and was intent on finding some "grouse nuggets" this weekend. Need to keep that going.
That Leupold Yosemite 6x30 is a fabulous kids binocular.
I would never give any kid anything that I would not own myself. I bought my nephews and nieces mid-range Nikons when they were that age and twenty-five years later they still treasure them.
It took me six months of Internet searches to locate the second pair of pink 6x30 Yosemites, but I finally scored on a NIB clamshell package containing a pair for $69 plus shipping. I think if you do a search every couple of days you should be able to hit on a pair.
That Yosemite is not just a great binocular for the price, it is great period and our family has Swaro, Nikon EDG, Leica and other great binoculars to compare them with. And best of all, they fit kids face.
