Photoswap is a game where you move tiles around to make the picture how it should be. The great thing about this game is that not only do you get some stock photos of animals but your own photos get included in the game too. When you run out of photos to do you can go snap some more to add to the fun.
The last game the Vtech Kidizoom has on it is Crazy Kitchen which you use by first using the Face Tracking tool to take a photo of yourself or a friend in a chefs hat/outfit. The game has different ingredients that fall down that you have to catch with a big frying pan.
