Ekidz Spider-Man Camera | was £29.99 | now £21.00 SAVE £8.99 (Argos) This fun digital camera comes with a 512MB memory card and captures photos and videos, including time-lapse and slow-motion. It's also an MP3 player and includes 5 playable games to keep kids busy!
I've been looking for a gift for a friend's little boy, who loves pretending he's Spider-Man and Peter Parker, and this seems like the perfect present!
Like the best cameras for kids it captures both photos and video, including slow-motion and time-lapse vids, and enables you to add Spider-Man-themed digital stickers to images. Better yet, it comes complete with a 512MB memory card so you can get shooting straight away (though it doesn't come with batteries, requiring three AAs).
It has a two-inch color screen, microphone and speaker. The latter comes in handy as the camera also doubles as an MP3 music player, and it also comes with five games for your little webslinger to play when they're not taking photos.
