Very Cool Product
Great fun had by all. I am a teacher and bought this for use in an educational context, but it hasn't reached my class. My own children have had so much fun with it on our house PC that I am going to have to buy another copy. My kids (4yrs and 6yrs) found it very easy to use. The interface can be as complicated or as simple as you want it to be. Would definately recommend it.
