We got our son a telescope several years back. All the dots become a little bigger. Ohh ahh
Hahaha! I know what you are talking about. Stars are kinda boring. The moon is the most fun to look at - you can see features, especially along the line of sunlight and dark (terminator).
Fortunately, when my Mom bought me a used telescope as a kid, one of the eyepieces had a “zoom”. Get a planet (dot) in the lens, and zoom in to see the rings - Hey! That’s Saturn! See if you can find a zoom - makes it a lot more fun than having to change the lens and re-find the object.
