[edit] Triple Mirror
When you take pictures by XO, its display screen is working as a finder. But it is difficult to see the display when you point the camera at the subject. In such case, a small triple mirror is useful. The cost of triple mirror is about one dollar or less. It is a good activity for kids to make their own camera adaptor by themselves.
[edit] LEGO bricks viewfinder
Mike Lee made a clip-on sports viewfinder made of LOGO bricks. OLPC XO Clip-on sports viewfinder made of LEGO bricks and Carrizzi's riff

Phil Carrizzi made another viewfinder by 3D printer. olpc_xoview_1_1
[edit] Origami Finder
It is possible to make a finder from paper using origami technique. It is inserted into the USB port. It is same as other ideas.
[edit] Paper Viewfinder
Probably the cheapest and simplest solution, requires only one 6 cm x 4 cm piece of paper and a piece of adhesive tape. Has the additional advantage that it can be left on the XO, folding down for storage.
