Take your own pictures, then create your own stories, puzzles and games with the Kidz Cam Digital Camera Kit. This digital camera kit comes with a digital camera and photo editing software, so you can shoot your own pics, then download and edit them on your computer. The Kidz Cam can take up to 152 pictures and you never have to worry about buying or loading film. With the photo project software that's included, you can use your pics to create games, puzzles and stories. Make a jigsaw puzzle out of your best friend's face or take a picture of your dog and write a story about him!

While the photo project software is great and easy to use, the camera itself has a few glitches. The various modes don't work as stated in the instruction manual and there's no instructions on how to use the camera as a Web cam. It's also not clear how the camera can be used to shoot video clips, which the packaging claims this camera can do. But for under $30, it's a very affordable digital camera, which is handy for taking pics of your family, friends or pets.
