Child Digital Camera Reviews

It is really hard to decide on a child digital camera to buy when it seems there are so many negative reviews and the list of features sounds so similar. There really are very few good reviews for any model child digital camera mostly do to the fact that the parents are the ones giving it. Most parents who write a review are shocked by the very low megapixels and poor quality of the LCD screen and then are some who had problems installing the camera or uploading the photos. Although they get poor reviews, the child loves using the camera, they do not seem to care as much about the picture quality, all they do is point and shoot and the uploading of photos onto the computer is usually done by the parents.

Okay so you may be thinking, should I even buy a digital camera made for a child or should I by an inexpensive, point and shoot digital camera? If you are buying them their first digital camera to start their interest in photography or as an educational toy then a kid digital camera with the big buttons, two eye viewer and games is the best bet. Now, if the child already has expressed a liking in photography and has taken pictures with an adult camera a kid digital camera might disappoint because of the low megapixel and low flash capabilities.

As far as the features, I am going to try to make it easier to look at the feature of different child digital cameras side by side on a chart, it should post it in the next couple days.

Protect Your Child While On the Internet

The reason you are looking for a child digital camera right now is because the kids today are more tech savvy then ever before. They do not learn how to use a computer in a class as we once did; their lessons are taught on the computer in class. Between using the computer for studying and homework as well as for fun (uploading photos from their child digital camera!), your child spends a lot of time on your home computer. So much time that it would be impossible for you to supervise the websites they visit, the material they look at or conversations with friends. That is why you should check out this parental control software for your PC that records everything your child does online, so you can keep and eye on them online even when you are not home.

Projects and Games For Your Child Digital Camera

Now most of the digital cameras that are designed to be used by your child come with project software that lets your child use the photos they took to play games, create puzzles and be creative.

But if you are into photography also there are some fun interactive camera projects that you can do with your child to spark their creativity.

1) Plan out a photo shoot with your child, decide on a location to photograph and you both bring your digital cameras.

2) Pick a game to play:

The alphabet game: Have your child take a picture of an object beginning with A-and continue through each letter of the alphabet.

Scavenger hunt: Provide a list of specific things to find and photograph, style (a cat, a fire hydrant, a tree, etc).

Story line: Have your child take photos that will follow a storyline.

3) Let them use the pictures they took with their child digital camera to make a presentation for the whole family to see!

Child Digital Camera Or Not?

I got an email with the question, “Should I buy my child a kids digital camera or a regular digital camera the child can grow into?” from one of my Digital Camera Help visitors. Well, the answer really lies with the child!
If you are buying them a digital camera as an educational toy or to start their interest in photography then a kid digital camera with all the games and software is probley the best bet. Now, if the child already has expressed a liking in photography and has taken pictures with an adult camera a kid digital camera would probley disappoint because of the low megapixel and low flash capabilities.
