Disney's Lilo & Stitch Play & Print - PC Games

Children will have lots of fun, with plenty of opportunity to be creative, imaginative and artistic. The images used are high-resolution (130 dpi), and they can be increased or decreased in size, rotated and moved about. Designers can insert and move text, and change the size and colour. Backgrounds can be varied. Designers can also choose from characters from the film, or use their own photographs. The actions and movements are easy to control, via on-screen icons (which make fun noises when clicked on) and though it is a highly graphical package, extensive testing revealed no pixellation or "sticking" between screens. The help pages can be accessed at any point; these are simple, clear and well laid-out, and cover all the important aspects of a project, from where to select images and text, to which paper is suitable when you print it out.

The CD-ROM is attractively boxed, and is accompanied by 30 sheets of special craft paper in different shapes, patterns and colours-all you need for your printing. It is also possible to buy further supplies, either on the High Street or by calling the after-sales number provided, and other standard papers can also be used. Accompanying the package is a 16-page pamphlet, but this only contains information relating to installation (which is very quick and easy) in a number of languages. It is therefore recommended that adults consult the "Parents Guide" on the CD-ROM to get more information before beginning. The manufacturers recommend the software as being suitable for children aged four years and above, but help will obviously be needed at this young age. This is a lovely, simple but highly effective print package that Lilo and Stitch fans, as well as generally creative and craft-loving children, will love.--Susan Naylor
