He'll have a ball with it, Bethie! It's a great toy. Teach him to anchor it and not shoot while he's moving around, there is nothing crappier than digital video shot with a handheld camera. You'll get vertigo trying to watch it! If you get an excuse to get him another toy, there is a micro-tripod that will actually fit in a pocket. It makes all the difference.
Make sure he uploads it to youtube and sends us a link of the parts with you first thing in the morning, or screaming your brains out when he's acting his age!
