Photography Demystified - For Kids!: A Kid's Guide and Parents Resource to Fun and Learning Photography Together - David Mckay

\n Photography Demystified--FOR KIDS! A Kid's Guide and Parent's Resource to Fun and Learning Photography Together, the fourth in the Photography Demystified series, is specifically designed for parents to read and follow with their children to create a fun-filled bond and hobby within the family. Many of the projects can be done even with the simplest of cameras, including those in smartphones.

My philosophy is that children need the freedom to be able to see and share how they see, and their wonder of it all should be acknowledged in a safe and non-critical way, first and foremost. THEN, upon that foundation, other aspects, including some of the technical aspects, can be brought in to enhance their experience and increase their knowledge. We MUST not put our filters on them!
