In fact, I fell in love with this CD-ROM and strongly recommend it to kids AND adults of all ages. Perfect for at home or in the classroom, it's a bargain when it comes to edutainment software. If you're a fan of Broderbund's famous Kid Pix software, you'll love the competition's Make A Masterpiece. Your guide is an eccentric animated character named Scribble who sports a hilarious French accent. Don't miss the amazing magic effects wand which lets you convert your creation into a dozen different art styles from mosaic to charcoal.
Kids love the awesome animated stickers like a giant green frog leaping across the screen.
You can even mix hundreds of your own paint combinations and give them special names. This software provides special inspiration. Perfect for the classroom, it provides kids with the right amount of art history to keep them interested in art. Each theme contains 15 color photographs, sketches and drawings or outline backgrounds which you can use as a starting point to make your own masterpiece. Beware of that realistic coyote sound that pops up out of nowhere in one of the desert scenes.
