I bought this for my 11 year old son and everyone he shows it to wants a copy (including the adults!). He has made "masterpieces" as gifts and is busy exploring every new area. This is like Photoshop for kids. Wonderful!

Having bought much for my grandsons Christmas presents, I was at a loss for his Dec 30 birthday.Then your catalog arrived and I had a whole new set of excellant choices. Since football and monster trucks were covered for Christmas, his next favorite things are his computer and art (he is seven and great at both things). This product was just the thing to keep me up there as the person who gives him his favorite gifts!! I'm sure he (and his Dad) will enjoy learning to use this software!
