Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This toy has potential and I loved playing along with my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter as she explored all the options the downloadable app had to offer. But first you'd better be OK with giving up use of your iPhone when your little one wants to play with this as while the phone is in the case, you won't be able to answer calls, check messages or anything else you usually do. The toy is actually just a plastic case shaped like a large camera. It has a pretend lens on the front and a hole to the lower left of that where the real lens of your phone is aligned. There is an opening on the backside where you screen is accessible and a button on the top that lines up with the button on the side of your phone to push to take a picture. In other words your phone is what is doing the work here, and you better have plenty of space for pictures on there if the kids really start to have fun with it. Also, the screen is exposed so they can use the app, so you won't want to let them roam the backyard or anywhere else you're hesitant about them taking your phone. If you have a protective case on your phone, it has to be removed before you place it in the "camera" too. The app that makes this so much fun, is actually free as a download in the iTunes App Store. For full functionality of the app you have to buy the case and take a picture of the bar code inside it to unlock the app, but the case itself doesn't do anything to enhance the app. I really liked the mini photo book you make by looking for shapes and letters to take a picture of. It's a scavenger hunt that promotes preschool skills like letter recognition. I think there are other apps you can download to use your phone camera that would be just as much fun for the kids. I got this because my granddaughter is always pretending to take pictures of everyone. I'd gotten her a toddler digital camera before but the picture quality was horrible, I thought this would be much better. In some ways it is, but overall I'm very disappointed. I feel like this case is just a gimmick. I think I'll look into a real camera, an inexpensive one, that my budding little shutterbug can use without jeopardizing Grammys phone and that we can then download the pictures into my iPad when she wants to edit and review her pics --unless I can find something else out there. This one is OK but it sure doesn't fill the bill.

I bought this for a friend's 5 year old twins! They both loved it! The editing features are awesome, it's like Instagram for kids. And it's great how this acts as a case and protects your iPhone. That's the other thing, the case prevents the kids from clicking your home button, so it's a completely safe environment.

When you buy the Creativity Camera you download the app from the App Store and it comes with 6 mini apps which are all great. The twins loved the photobooks app. They played with all of the mini apps for nearly the entire barbecue I was at.

This product is great, I'm going to get it for my niece.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I am so relieved to read that my experience is one shared by others. No one likes being "the bad guy/gal," but when it comes time to take back my phone, the result is unfortunate. I suppose it seems strange that this toy is not in the child's control but remains contingent upon a parent's/grandparent's ability to relinquish their phone. And, for many professionals, this is not an option for an extended period. I certainly did not consider this when I ordered it. (Perhaps I did not consider that this would be such a hit ... which does say positive things about LeapFrog's ability to connect to children).

As pointed-out by others but sincerely necessitates repeating, this is (by all means) a pretty neat phone case. It is super durable (I cannot tell you how many times it has been dropped already) and provides ample protection for one's phone. With this said, one's child can manipulate these pictures in a fun and exciting way ... pretty neat! And, I do enjoy the idea of fostering creativity ... even on the smallest level.

Here's the warning, if you are a professional who needs to remain in constant contact with work, I would not necessarily recommend this product. It may lead to frustration on both you and your child's part. However, if you are in a position where your phone is more of a pleasant luxury, than why not invest in this? I can assure you, your child will love it!

Honest reviews on LeapFrog Creativity Camera App with Protective Case, Green (Works

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This camera works with the 4/4s/5 and 5C as well as the iPod touch 4G. It completely encloses the phone except for the screen and allows your child to safely use your phone without your child injuring it.

It completely surrounds the phone and once you are using the app, your child cannot change apps as long as the camera is on the phone.

My granddaughter has been using this and it really is nice to be able to hand off my phone without worrying when she will do something inappropriate with it.

Recommended for younger children since older ones will want to use the phone without the case.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My grandson couldn't get enough of this case! His Dad has an iPod Touch that he occasionally lets him play around with, but because he still uses it on a daily basis he's hesitant to let it out of his sight. The last time we visited I had him try out the LeapFrog Creativity Camera App with Protective Case and he loved it. We of course felt like we were being hounded by a mini paparazzi because he was constantly saying to us "look at the camera", "smile" and "just one more!". Thankfully after about an hour he grew bored and moved onto the next thing, but this is a great idea for those times when he wants to play with the iPod and Dad can feel okay about it. Overall it's sturdy, easy to use and priced right for what it is.
