My 5 year old daughter is a V.Smile fanatic and she also loves to draw, so this is the perfect combination for her. Not to mention how much paper the V.Smile Art Studio has already saved us. Now I just hope that V-Tech creates more Smartridges that are compatable with the Art Studio, the possibilities for this are virtually limitless.

I bought this for a Christmas present for my 6 year old, and because of the mixed reviews, my 17 yr old daughter and I decided to try it out first…and boy am I glad we did. After a brief discussion, we returned the Paint Station and decided to get something else in it’s place. The toy has some definite possibilities, but it’s our opinion not enough of the kinks were worked out before it was put on the market. It’s true, you do have to press a little harder on the pen, but that’s not really a big deal and didn’t influence our decision.
Some programs worked really well and were fun, but we grew frustrated because other programs didn’t work as well and there was one program that didn’t work at all. It’s our opinion this product would require adult supervision in order to navigate through the ‘kinks’ so the child wouldn’t become exasperated. I think V Smile is close to something really good, so I hope they keep working on improving the product.

I am so glad that I tested this out before Christmas. My son is very into art and drawing, so I thought he would love this. And I am sure that he would, if it worked properly. The screen is just not sensitive enough at some times, and too sensitive at others. You have to either press very hard on the icons to get them to work, or tap a few times very lightly. There is absolutely no consistency to it. An older child might not mind, but I think it would really frustrate a 3-5 year old. I think that this is one of those toys that was rushed through development to make it to the market in time for Christmas, and that is a shame because this is a great idea. I hope that they will fine-tune it, I would definately buy it again if they would take the time to work out the kinks.

i have a 3 1/2 and 5 year old and they absolutely love it. they have had it about 2 weeks and just can’t stop playing. i have considered buying a second one. it is teaching my 3 1/2 year old how to mix colors to make other colors.

I bought the Paint Station for my son this morning at TRU. We were so excited to get it home and play with it. Easy to hook up, but you had to basically put all of your weight on the pen to get it to write. Needless to say, it was back at TRU within the hour. I think it could be fun, but the drawing surface was not sensitive enough, and my son got really frustrated with it. I’d consider buying one again if it was redesigned.
