Is there a good camera to get a child, to introduce him/her to photography?

I have a 3YO niece that loves to take pictures with her parents very fragile and expensive camera. Is there a good kids camera out there, so she won’t break Mom & Dad’s?

Fuji is a good brand to go for as they are easy to use and are a good size for them to gran on to. In terms of her age i suggest you get any extended \”accidental\” plan the store offers. In my place of work we cover any accidental or mechanical over three years. Any fujifilm is goood, the fuji j30 or f72 is goood depends on how much you want to spend.

Only thing is - Fuji cameras are broken easily. I've known a few people who have dropped their point and shoot's and the battery catch breaks on them very easily.
