 not worth it November 15, 2008
I wish this had been better but I don't think it is worth the money. The large size makes it difficult for little hands to manage, the delete button is annoying, the picture quality is terrible - forget flash photography. I'm sure you could buy a real digital camera for this price and at least be able to share and talk about the photos with your kids. It sounds good but my advice is to skip it and look for something else.
 Fisher Price Kid Tough Digital Camera - Blue November 10, 2008
My son received this last year. He still uses it today. Well worth the money. Comes with a USB cord and transferring pix couldn't be easier. Bought one today for my 5 year old daughter pink of course for a Christmas gift.
 Total crud September 30, 2008
This camera takes terrible pictures. Terrible. The delete key shouldn't make a fun noise because my kid likes to hit it to hear the sound.
 kid tough digital camera July 24, 2008
"Santa" brought this camera for our 3 year old son. We were excited for him to have it because he could be a little rough, as boys are, and it wouldn't break. To my surprise he was very gentle with it. He's dropped it a couple of times on accident, but it still worked fine. It was very easy for him to use. He could hold it up and look at the screen (as grown-ups do) or he could look through the double eye views to see his picture. He learned how to review the pictures, delete them and turn the camera on and off by himself.
The picture quality is great for a toddler camera. I think when most people get this they expect the same quality as their own camera. Keep in mind this is for a toddler, who doesn't care what the picture looks like, they just want to take them.
The camera holds about 60 pictures. I have a cheap 512mb SD card which holds more than enough for him to go crazy with pictures.
My computer picks up the camera as soon as I plug it in (I have windows Vista). I have no problems downloading the pictures (I think if people do it's a user problem not a camera problem).
The flash does make the pictures really bright, and I have found that the best distance for taking pictures is around 3-4 feet away.
We have had our camera for 7 months now and the flash doesn't work. The symbol for the flash indicates that it is ready, and even in a dark setting there is no flash. I would like to see a little more customer support available on these matters.
I know others who have this camera and they don't have this problem, so it might just be this one (which is not unheard of).
Overall, if you are looking for a camera for your 3-5 year old I would say, get it. It's kid friendly, the size is perfect for little hands, it's easy to use and with the aid of a cheap SD card they can take hundreds of pictures at a time. Battery life is great, and the screen resolution is fine for a kid (they can tell what they took a picture of).
Not a bad toy, but not as durable as we'd hoped at the price July 21, 2008
We bought this camera 15 months ago for our son's fourth birthday. He was very excited at first, but he found the poor display kind of disappointing. When we put the photos on his computer for him to play with, he was a lot more interested, and we encouraged him to photograph mainly outdoors where the photo quality was better. (Only with absolutely fresh batteries did the flash work well.)
But, as so many have pointed out, be bought it as a toy and it did what we expected it to do.
Now, Jack is a rpetty laid back fellow, and his camera didn't take a beating. We worked hard to help him learn to use the camera as though it were an adults camera, since that's our next step.
Nonetheless, after a bit over a year, the camera has stopped working. Very disappointing.
