Best Photography Accessories For Kids Cameras

If you're planning on buying a child or teen their first camera, have you also thought about what accessories they might need? Cameras designed for kids are usually pretty robust, but it's better to be safe than sorry and that's where cases and bags come in. 

Some models offer specific cases that will fit them perfectly, but there are also lots of generic camera cases and straps out there ideal for children and teens.

Here, we round up some of our favourite accessories which include cases for the ever-popular VTech KidiZoom Duo which can still be found in our 'Best Digital Cameras For Kids' list.
