KIDZ GEAR BINOCULARS FOR KIDS WINS
“PLAYER’S CHOICE AWARD” FROM GAME BOYZ MAGAZINE
Child-Size, High-quality, Rugged Binoculars Perform Like Pro Binoculars
San Ramon, CA, August 10, 2005 — Kidz Gear, the award-winning Grown-up Performance, Built For Kids! brand, announced today that their Kidz Gear Binoculars For Kids has won the “PLAYER’S CHOICE” AWARD from Game Boyz Magazine (www.game-boyz.com). Editor Murray Galbraith said, “We gave them our ‘Players Choice Award’ for the WOW factor they induced with the child [testing the binoculars].” See http://www.game-boyz.com/g/review_994_p22.html for full article.
Galbraith states in the article, “When I handed them to my son, he took his first look through them: “Wow!” — “oh neat” — “this is great!” – “take a look at this…” He was off and running, looking at anything he could see out the window, and calling us to come look too. He loved them. They were his size, and they did exactly what he expected. They looked cool, and they were cool.”
Small, light-weight and rugged, Binoculars for Kids offer optical quality and performance comparable to many adult binoculars costing three times as much. Priced at only $29.99, Kidz Gear Binoculars for Kidz are constructed with a rugged all-metal body and rubberized armor coating for easy grip and long life. They are small enough to ensure an optimal interpupillary distance measurement (the distance between the eyes) that fits the close-set eyes and smaller faces of many young adventurers, while still providing a comfortable and secure feeling in the child’s hands.
With 7x magnification, 11.4mm eye relief and 489 feet field of view at 1000 yards, Binoculars for Kids offers standards and specifications rarely found with a pair of binoculars designed specifically for children. Other fun features of the binoculars are the cool built-in compass for those lost and found adventure games, a handy carrying pouch with lens cleaning cloth and a comfortable neck strap.
Laurie Peterson, President, Kidz Gear said, “We are excited about winning the award on our Binoculars for Kids from the team at Game Boyz. The reaction of their testers confirms that Kidz Gear’s goal of delivering performance products to the children’s market is working.”
