New photo gifts for kids: The ultimate vanity project. Not that that’s a bad thing.
My kids love nothing more than looking at photos of themselves. In fact, if I'm hard pressed to find something to amuse them in the waiting room at the doctor's office or on the train, my go-to source is the camera roll on my iPad. Now if only there was a way to get...
