Ironically WRT tiny shovels, kids plastic toys are made to fall apart for about $10, real plastic adult spades that last forever run about $5, and adult metal spades designed to rapidly fall apart cost $15. If you're willing to pay $30 you can get a dewitt that your kids will inherit, but it'll be ugly and heavy...

There's a different problem for binoculars, Thomas the Tank Engine binoculars will cost $20 for licensing, no name but optically superior adult binocs will be $30. Of course the $400 Steiners are worth it if you're actually going to look thru them, or if you spend thousands of dollars to get somewhere to look thru them it would be nice if they actually work.
