Hands up, if your kids are always “borrowing” (OK, swiping) your phone to snap photos of….whatever it is that catches their eye at the time.
For these little shutterbugs, a fab gift to consider when birthdays or special occasions roll around is a kid’s digital camera, one that’s designed specifically for easy and fun use by children.
Not only does having their own camera enable them to capture moments and things special to them, it also encourages creativity and opens up a new way of exploring the world. Not to mention it’s a good way to prevent them from being glued to phones and tablets all day.
