Get good at identifying constellations with nothing but your eyes then when you're ready, upgrade to binoculars (leave telescopes until later they can be fiddly and put you off).
Here's are some targets: Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, Sirius, Castor and Pollux, the Moon, Betelgeuse, Aldebaran, Mercury (difficult), Kemble's Cascade (binoculars), M31 (binoculars), M44 (binoculars), Uranus (difficult, probably need binoculars).
