Taking pictures is almost a daily event at my house. My daughters love pretending to take pictures with all the broken cameras we have. They are ecstatic when they have a real camera to use but this mommy cringes every time they pick up our point and shoot. Thank goodness there are cameras for kids! Add a widely known animated figure, like Dora, to the camera and kids are hooked (at least my kids were).

Dora the Explorer now has a talking digital camera! This new product is the teamwork of Sakar pairing with Nickelodeon. Designed for little kids, this organically shaped camera includes a software suite and has a number of built-in phrases from Dora. The MSRP of this fun little device is $29.99 and it can be found in stores as well as online at places like Amazon.  It is powered by two AAA batteries (not included).

We put this camera to use for review. My girls really enjoyed using it.

Pros: Lightweight, easy to power on and off, buttons are simple to push, Dora’s voice is engaging, the software is manageable by a four-year-old.

Cons: There is no display screen to review pictures, photos cannot be deleted without uploading them to the computer via the mandatory software, you need an absolutely teeny tiny screwdriver to get the battery cover open.
