Toys and Games Reviews of Fisher Price Kid-Tough Digital Camera for Boys
Customer Review: Kids digital camera
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my grandson (age 4). He likes it, but he did have a hard time figuring out how to use it at first. Once he got the hang of it, though, he took lots and lots of pictures of the ground, our feet, the backs of seats in the car, etc. But he loved taking pictures because everyone else was taking pictures with their cameras! It has taken many falls and still keeps on going!
Issues - 1) He loves the noise it makes when it deletes the pictures a little too much, though, because he then wants to continue deleting pictures just because of the noise. You should be able to turn this noise off. 2) It is bulky and heavy for a child to carry around. 3) The pictures it takes are horrible. You can barely tell what it is a picture of - there has got to be a way to improve the picture quality. 4) It uses a lot of batteries.
Overall it doesn't matter about the little things, because my 4-year-old grandson is happy with the camera and the pictures!
Customer Review: Perfect digital camera for kids but don't expect great pictures
Summary: 4 Stars
I originally decided upon this camera because of the features and the fact that it is digital. It is extreemly user friendly and durable. The LCD screen and built in memory is really nice to have. It also comes with a USB cable to allow you to download your images to the computer. I figure it is the best camera for children if you are looking for digital features. My 8 year old son thinks the camera is "awesome."
Unfortunately the quality of the images is very poor and the automatic flash is hard to work with. The picture resolution is only 640 x 480. The flash range is 4-8ft and bright, making indoor shots a bit tricky. Images taken in outside in bright sun have worked well. My son wants to take close-up pictures of his cards and toys which has been been difficult with a focus range of 4ft out.
It's a great starter camera for kids but once my son is more responsible with his things and gets serious about pictures and we'll need to upgrade.
Customer Review: Five year olds LOVE it!

I read a lot of negative things about this camera in these reviews, but I went with my initial plans and bought each of my twins one for their fifth birthday. They are constantly asking me if they can take a picture with my digital camera, so I thought it would be good for them to have their own. They LOVE these cameras! They used them for the first time yesterday and spent the entire day taking pictures of my flower garden, the cat, each other...pretty much anything they could find. The kids couldn't care less that the image on the digital screen is not the clearest. THEY know what they took a photo of. And they had just as much fun deleting the old photos as taking new ones. The cameras are so easy for them to use. We went over what each button does, and they took it from there. They were already experimenting with taking photos of the same subject from different angles and distances to see how it affected the results. I highly recommend these cameras!Customer Review: Good Toddler Camera
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this camera with the understanding that the picture quality wouldn't be great but wanted a sturdy camera for my 2 year old to enjoy. He is so excited to have his own camera and it lessens his interest in my much more expensive one! Prior to this we would let him snap his heart out with disposable cameras, but then you are paying to develop 20 shots of his thumb! The quality indeed isn't great, but it has already withstood several hard knocks and is still working. It is also designed to be simple for kids to master quickly which is great. My only complaint is the fuzzy quality when viewing the pictures on the camera screen, but my little guy is just happy to see the pictures he has taken and doesn't seem to mind the poor quality at all. While it is a little expensive, this is a great item for a budding photographer. Just be realistic with your picture quality expectations and catch any important moments with your own camera.Customer Review: Good Concept...Bad Product
Summary: 1 Stars
The first camera I purchased for Christmas never had a flash. It took awhile to get a new camera because they were so popular over the holidays. The second camera worked off and on for three months before it stopped working entirely.
I'm very frustrated at all the time I spent trying to replace this product TWICE. I haven't tried to replace the product again because I am sure the end result will be the same. While it worked, my 4 1/2 year old loved the camera. It was easy to hold, he loved taking pictures and "seeing" what he had taken. He felt very big with his own digital camera. The LCD quality is very poor but he didn't care. The problem is that the product itself is so cheaply made and of poor quality that it doesn't matter how much my child liked it. The fact is that two of them have not worked. You can like something all you want but if it never works...then what does it matter?
