3D printer for children? help and advice needed

[BenD]

Hello 3D printer board thanks for the add.

By the name of this forum, I'm sure I have got right place to ask about 3D printers! for the past couple of months, my son has been creating all different types of designs with a 3D printer in technology lessons at school. He had taken it on that well the teacher had spoken to me to tell me how impressed he is, which is awesome. Now, he has come home and asked me if he could get a 3D printer obviously it's hard for me to say no with all the good things I have been hearing. So, Is there a 3D printer out there for children that aren't going to empty my bank account? I have been looking here http://www.for-sale.co.uk/3d-printer and I think $400 to get him something is enough but my only problem is I was an adult when 3D printing come out and I have no idea on how it works let alone what would make a good beginner machine.

All advice and suggestions are greatly appreciated, guys. if there is any other information needed please let me know and I will get back to you ASAP.

Thanks a bunch
