Parents, there may be a way to get your children off your phones this Raya holiday. Get them a kids’ camera and have them take family pictures once the whole family is back in the hometown. With the kid-friendly camera (that actually takes pictures and videos), they can even document the whole ride home.
Giving them a kid-friendly camera isn’t simply handing them another toy. Letting them compose their own pictures encourages creativity, enhances observational skills, develops technical and fine motor skills, builds self-confidence and a sense of accomplishment, and gives them an outlet for self-expression.
Here are some kids’ cameras to consider to help unleash their creativity:
myFirst
myFirst has two types of cameras for children: digital cameras and instant cameras/polaroids. The latest addition to the instant camera line is the Insta Lux. The camera resolution ranges from 12MP to 20MP, depending on the model. With myFirst digital cameras, children can take HD photos and videos, and also utilise the pre-loaded frames for extra creative shots. The cameras are also made to be kid-proof: durable and scratch-resistant.
Additionally, myFirst’s kid-friendly lineup includes a smartwatch, a smart family frame, a sketch board, wireless over-ear headphones, and a 3D Pen Make Creator Kit.
