PRODUCT SHOOTOUT
We review four camera gizmos for kids
By Joe Dolittle
In this all-new product review shootout, we put four kid-safe(ish) camera(ish) products to the test. Read on to learn how Fisher Price Kid-Tough Digital Camera for Boys, Kid-Tough Digital Camera Case, RipRoar Creation Station from Manley, and Wild Planet Spy Video Car from Wild Planet stand up to our editorial review.
Fisher Price Kid-Tough Digital Camera for Boys
 Preschoolers can learn the art of photography with this digital camera designed especially for them. With a 1.3" color LCD, preview screen, easy navigation menu, and wrist strap, it's meant to stand up to typical rough preschooler use.
Kids can instantly see the picture they've taken on the LCD screen or they can delete previous shots. It features dual handle grips ergonomically designed for little hands and two-eye viewing that makes looking through the viewfinder a breeze.
Connected Photographer's evaluation
This little beast doesn't take particularly good pictures, but it can withstand being eaten by a classroom of little monsters. It takes only 640x480 pictures, but. really, just how high a resolution do you need to take a picture of snot? At least you're not paying for the film! It's a wonder my parents survived my childhood, that's all I'm sayin'.
Seriously, though, this isn't a great camera. It isn't even a good camera. But it takes pictures and will survive at least a month (ok, maybe a week). If your kid's a horror and, yet, you still want to get him or her a camera, this is a good, if somewhat pricey choice.
Fisher Price Kid-Tough Digital Camera for Boys, has a retail price of $69.99. We give Fisher Price Kid-Tough Digital Camera for Boys a rating of 3 out of 5.
OUR RATING: 3 of 5
Kid-Tough Digital Camera Case
 Where's the best place for your spawn to keep his Kid-Tough Digital Camera? In this case! It's lightweight and easy to carry with plenty of room for your Kid-Tough Digital Camera, USB cord, and dead frogs to freak out Sally after milk and nap time.
Connected Photographer's evaluation
In your fantasies, your kid will put his stuff away. So, in your fantasies, your kid will put his camera in this case. Hey, it's under $20 and cases are cool. Buy it and if he puts his stuff away, you're a notch ahead of the game.
Kid-Tough Digital Camera Case, has a retail price of $16.29. We give Kid-Tough Digital Camera Case a rating of 3 out of 5.
OUR RATING: 3 of 5
