6 camera's for kids 2021




Photography is such a wonderful way to allow your child to create while have fun (with no mess).
Giving your kid a camera gives them the opportunity to to explore and see the world from a new point of view, also if they really get into photography they will never be able to afford drugs.
If you are also a photographer, getting out with you kids and their camera is a great way to spend some quality creative time together. Morning out with my daughter.


Here are a selection of my favourite to get your kids started.
