Sky Level 1 Settings

My folks are actually using the 70mm telescope that I got them awhile back. They live in a typical suburb with a mix of trees and streetlights to deal with, but they do have some dark spots in their yard where they can get fairly decent views. Next time I get a chance, I'd like to set up their Celestron level 1 version of The Sky.
Any suggestions on what magnitudes and types of objects to filter out?

I have several telescopes, but none are semi-APO, APO, or in anyway valuable.
