Today's Giveaway is a 3 month Shidonni Pro subscription ($16.95 value), a virtual drawing world for children.
Shidonni is a free drawing game that your child can draw an animal (or other object), draw their own background, and even food to feed their drawing, plus lots of other fun things. Then they can make their animal comes to life and move about your computer screen.
The program is free, but if you upgrade to a Shidonni Pro account , it will allow your child to draw clothing for the animals, use patterned brushes, stamps, more colors, many new worlds, fun music, and lots more.
The recommended age is 4-10 years old, so I wasn't sure what my 10y old video-gaming addict grandson would think when I asked him to help me review the game. But he had a great time drawing with me. First he only drew a stick figure cat, but once he saw how much he would do with the program, he got more adventurous and drew a car! Then he wanted me to draw too, so I made a clown.
What he loved best about the program, is that when we played the different games (Snakes & Ladders, Memory Game, Puzzles, etc) his car & my clown were used, making it extra fun! He said that the game was probably more for a younger kid, but he had lots of fun playing with it! I had fun too, which is more than I can say about playing his video games with him!
Winning is easy!!
