I got this camcorder/camera for my 5 year old daughter as one of her birthday presents. She loves it although she hasn't quite figured it out yet, but my daughters will be working on it. First, buy a micro SD memory card. It is needed to record something. This is a decent camcorder and the picture quality is fine for kids. You can easily switch between videos and images at the push of a button. Games are cool! Lots of entertainment options! Nice little gift for the price. Paw print stickers are a nice touch, but not all stay. It's better to buy stickers on the side.
