Girl with a Camp Snap camera
The author bought the camera for herself, but her kids love taking photos with it
  • In 2023 I saw an ad for a screen-free digital camera that cost $65. 
  • I had been wanting to use my phone less around my kids, but also didn't want to miss cute moments. 
  • The camera is helping me reduce my screen time and has gotten my kids into photography.

As a working mom, I've been struggling with my screen time. On the one hand, I want to set a good example for my kids and not be on my phone all the time; on the other, well, it's really hard to do.
