A little expensive for what you get

by Holly
(Perris, CA, USA)

Product: Atelier art
Subject: Art
Levels Used: Level 1
Dates Used: Sept. 2007 - Dec. 2007

Likes: The program is easy, everything is set up and even my 5 year old could follow the instructions and learn art techniques from the video teacher. His abilities did increase from the lessons.

Dislikes: I'm not sure that the lessons "stuck;" he didn't seem to apply what he learned in doing other art projects, only to the actual art lessons. Also, he didn't really enjoy the lessons, which was the real key to why we stopped. Being a perfectionist, he felt pressure to reproduce the teacher's work (although that is not in the program) and to do it faster. The lessons became a chore rather than a pleasure.

I would definitely not recommend it if your child is a perfectionist.

Even if your child isn't, I do think this program is rather highly priced. I think you can probably get its equal for less.
