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.

==== LEGO bricks viewfinder ====

==== 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.
