Canal Toys Photo Creator Instant Camera Review | AD

Children love taking photos and documenting their world. For this purpose, cameras designed for kids, like the Photo Creator Instant Camera by Canal Toys, are ideal. They let children enjoy taking photos easily and safely. The Photo Creator Instant Camera can even print the photos too! It also has lots of other great features. We’ll explore them all in this review.

Introducing the Photo Creator Instant Camera

The Photo Creator Instant Camera is a pocket-sized kids instant camera that is easy for children to use. It’s recommended for ages 8 years and over and to be used with parental supervision. This camera can be used for both photos and videos and has lots of cool features:

• 12 megapixels camera
• Shutter timer for group selfies
• Built-in 1000mAh rechargeable battery
• Selfie lens for easy selfies
• 20+ fun photo filters and effects
• Large full-colour screen
• 4GB micro-SD card to store photos
• Built-in thermal printer for instant photo prints
• USB cable for charging and transferring photos

What’s in the box?

The Photo Creator Instant Camera comes with lots of accessories. Below is a list of what you will find in the box:

• 1 Instant camera
• 1 SD card (4GB) 
• 4 Rolls of paper
• 4 Marker pens
• 1 Wrist strap
• 1 USB charger cable
• 1 Sticker sheet
• 1 User manual
• 2 Camera skins

This set lets you print around 250+ prints that you can customise with the stickers and the colourful markers. When you run out of printer paper for your camera, you can get a refill pack of 10 paper rolls.

Using the Photo Creator Instant Camera

The Photo Creator Instant Camera is almost ready to use when you get it. All you need to do is charge it up which is quick and easy with the included charging cable. If you want to print photos, you also need to put a paper roll in the camera which is straightforward. You can also choose to add one of the two included camera skins to personalise your camera. We went for the checked black and white design with colourful smiley faces.

Once charged and set up, your child can enjoy practicing their photography skills. They can use the back camera for selfies or the front camera for taking photos of things like flowers or their favourite toys or for photographing friends and family. We found that the selfie camera takes better quality photos.

Children will love the fun frames that you can choose from for photos. They’ll also love printing their favourite snaps to colour in and decorate. Thermal printing is completely ink-free too so you’ll never have to worry about running out of ink.

Not all kids cameras come with a memory card so it’s great to see that the Photo Creator Instant Camera does. It provides plenty of storage for lots of photos and videos. Once full, simply transfer any photos you want to keep to your computer. 

Conclusion

This kids camera is a great option if you’re looking for a camera for your child to use. It’s easy to use and encourages children to be independent and creative. My kids love it! I’m sure it will be joining us on many outdoorsy adventures this year where it will allow the kids to capture their favourite moments.

The Photo Creator Instant Camera is available to buy from Argos, Amazon.co.uk and other retailers.
