I wanted a drawing application, any drawing application, so i went to the iTunes app store and this was the top rated one in the list. I was thinking of going with the Free/Lite version but that experiment did not work so well with the Faries Fly Lite.
This application comes with a collaboration feature so if your toddler wants to whiteboard an escape out of their daycare they can silently share the plans amongst themselves. Other than that somewhat overboard feature this is a pretty cool tool. The big problem is its not really toddler friendly. The ability to adjust the "pen" size and color is easy for an adult, but not a toddler feature.
That said...once i got the little drawing board set up Wormie was enthralled. She cranked out six different drawings over a period of 20 minutes. As we refined the the pen size and played with colors she became more and more excited. While it wasn't the best parent helper in my tool kit but it was one of the most gratifying since we were able to play with it together. Currently its the application she most wants to use, making it great for restaurants, but not so good for car usage.
A week after playing with the App I discovered a cool feature. I was scrolling through my photo library and all the drawings Wormie had made were saved. It was kinda cool to go through and check out all of the odd little butterflies and stick people she had made when we were playing with it.
