    Nice program. Very imaginative, and the kids really like it. Seems to be "green", because I copied the folder, uninstalled, and the copy ran OK. I like the way you can turn off the printer, to keep the kids from printing and wasting ink and paper. I do wish there was a way to clear the current page without bringing up the save dialog. The kids are saving too many files. All in all, I like this program. However, I prefer the much smaller, green, and feature-packed program "Drawing for Children", but this one has its good points.

    My daughter is 5 now, and while she hasn't used it much in awhile (I think she has forgotten about it), she has used it for a couple years and we have some really cute, "save forever" things from it. Just be sure they know how to save their work and start a NEW one rather than just going over the same one!

    And don't forget to download all the extra stamps available on the home page.
