...Tough digital camera from Fisher-Price has sturdy rubber grips and a color LCD screen so kids can review snaps immediately. ("Look Ma! My hand!") The double viewfinder helps wee ones frame their shots. Image resolution is a mere 640 by 480 pixels (barely enough for a decent 4-in.-by-6-in. print), but low res also means there's more room to store pics: the 8 MB of built-in memory holds some 70 images, and there's a memory-card slot so Mom or Dad can up capacity.
