Summary: My kids love it and we've had no probs with it
Comment: We gave this to my 6 year old son for his birthday in October. Both he and my 3 year old daughter love it!!! We had absolutely no problems setting it up and they have had no problems using it.
A previous reviewer had said that the kids could just hit the on/off button and get on your computer and this worried me a little but it isn't true. When you push the on/off button you have to enter the parent password to get it to turn off and go to the computer.
My only complaint is the amount of ink we are going through. The kids make so many things and they want to print them all. The feature that allows you to limit the number of prints is a great help with this and I have also defaulted our printer to print in draft mode so that it doesn't use quite as much ink.
Overall this is a great product and I would recommend it to anyone who has a kid that likes arts and crafts.

Summary: My art-inspired daughter LOVES it
Comment: I have never reviewed a product before despite the hundreds of items I have purchased through Amazon over the years. I was looking at this item again as a possible Christmas present for my nieces (9, 7, 4) when they saw my daughter (5) playing with hers and seemed to really like it.
I'm not sure what the people who had trouble with it were doing wrong, but I have had no problems with this item. My daughter, who loves to draw, create, and just generally "doodle" can't get enough of this. And I really like to use it with her. We've made books, cards, calendars and just all kinds of fun and goofy drawings.
For those concerned about the kids printing too many of their projects, I would recommend they read the instructions. You have the ability to limit the print-outs per session and other parental controls that should alleviate any concerns of that nature.
The one "complaint" I would agree with is that it would be nice if you could toggle between the computer desktop and the game, as there are times when you may need to respond to a printer error, obtain images for upload, etc that would be easier if that were possible.
But in the grand scheme, and compared to the number of items we have used that are truly just junk, this is a fairly sophisticated little art center that I feel lives up to its advertising.
We are very happy with this product and if you have a young one who needs additional media as an outlet for their creativity, I would recommend this highly.

Summary: Tough to set-up, didn't work for us
Comment: My son received this last year for Christmas. He was very excited to get started. I was able to install the software that came with the toy however we were not able to use any of the fun activities. We'd pull an activity up and the screen would multiply over and over and over. The website was no help as it was under construction. We tried calling customer support for this product and the phone would just ring numerous times without anybody to pick up the phone. We tried over a week. So we thought maybe the toy was defective, sent it back. We got a new one from Amazon very quickly and the same thing happened with our replacement. So I figured it must be something with our computer that we were missing. Of course I had no technical support from FP. I tried several different things including help from 3 other computer tech guys in the family. Nobody could figure this out. Before you buy, make sure FP can give you the tech support you may need to set up. Everything listed on the box for computer compatibility we had so I'm not sure why we could not get this to work.

Summary: Great Product
Comment: My 4 year old daughter always wants to do things on the "puter". She got this for her birthday and it is perfect. She loves to draw and create things, so this is perfect. The stylus is a little frustrating for me because it does not work the same as a mouse, but she picked riht up on it. I am amazed with her hand eye coordination - and it keeps getting better. She quickly picked up on how to change from painting to coloring to stamping. I can't believe how well she was able to master it. She loves typing things to learn her letters. I love it.

Summary: Great product!
Comment: My daughter (4) got this as a birthday gift last year. It was easy for her to understand how to work it. As she gets older she is learning more things and is able to discover new parts of the game. I found it very easy to install, the quality of the product is great and very durable; just remember to go to the support website and get your system updates!
