I bought the Funkey Cam for my daughter for her third birthday. She loves it! She usually won't leave the house without it. She's a bit young to understand exposure, film advance, etc., so I went with point-and-shoot digital. I don't see why a five year old wouldn't be able to understand some basics of composition. Go for it. She'll probably love it. -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com -- "You have to hold the button down" -Arnold Newman
