USB cable connection and one-time CD-ROM installation makes set-up a cinch.

Because kids love making their own decisions, the Digital Arts & Crafts Studio offers 256 colors, 75 scene starters, and 300 stampers, giving your child the tools to design, create, print, and assemble his or her own art projects. You can easily import your own digital pictures as well, allowing your child to create personalized backgrounds, stampers, and coloring pages with them. And when their projects are complete, children can save and print them out to share with friends and to make paper crafts.
Easy to Use
Plugging easily into your USB port, the Digital Arts & Crafts Studio takes the place of a keyboard and mouse, and is ready to use again and again after a quick, one-time CD software installation. The durable and child-safe plastic tablet and stylus allow kids to work and play comfortably on their own, while password-protected controls block access to desktop and hard drive files -- so you don't have to worry about your kids getting into your personal files. You can even limit the number of papers printed per session.
The Fisher-Price Digital Arts & Crafts Studio requires Microsoft Windows XP, 2000, or Vista; a 750 MHz processor; a USB 1.1 port; and 256 MB of RAM. An internet connection for software updates and a color printer are recommended. Additional software with more arts and crafts projects, fun themes, and familiar characters can be purchased separately.

Favorite Xmas Gift! Jul 21, 2008
We got this for our granddaughter last xmas. Seven months later it is still working perfectly and gets nearly daily use. My only complaint would be the expense of keeping printer ink to print all her masterpieces!

It does not work with HP Jun 24, 2008
I BOUGHT THIS TOY FOR MY FOUR YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, SHE COULD NEVER USE IT BECAUSE HP DOES NOT READ THE USB CONECTION FOR THIS GAME. I TRIED IT IN 2 OTHER COMPUTERS AND DIDNT WORK BECAUSE OF THE 64 BITS VIDEO YOU NEED.

Terrible, terrible, terrible! Jun 24, 2008
I am astonished by how awful this product functions. While we did not have install problems at all, we did experience major disappointment while using it. Why? The stylus and the screen aren't matched well. You draw on the "paper" (the white board on the unit) as my son calls it and nothing stays in place on the screen. So when you get one area all set the way you want it, but switch to a different spot, your first area MOVES! And then your second paintblob or line moves when you make your third. So your picture never stays the way you wanted. I don't see how anyone can enjoy using this product. It is too bad because it is such a fun idea. I can't imagine completing any of the projects featured on the box or in the video demo since everything MOVES! I waited a long time to buy this product for my son. Now it's going back to the store as soon as possible! And yes, I have it set for the recommended resolution. I really don't think this is user error. I think it is design error. UGH! I wish I knew about a reasonable alternative.

Waste of money May 25, 2008
My six year old received this as a gift. After spending countless hours trying to install the software and make it work, I have given up. Customer service was no help. They assured me that it was my computer that wouldn't work and not the product. I have recently tried it on another computer and still find that it doesn't work. Don't waste your money.

ART STUDIO May 15, 2008
This a wonderful toy. Very easy to use my 5 & 8 yr old love to use it. I was afraid of buying the studio because of some of the bad reviews. But if was very simple to install had no problems at all, and I am not very computer savvy. Highly recommended.
