As someone else points out, this page ("[[Draw]]") covers the same aspects as the "[[Drawing Activity]]" page... Why was another page made? More stuff links to the Draw page, and the activity is actually called "Draw", so I think the other page should be deleted and its contents used to replace this one. This would be in keeping with the naming scheme of other activity pages ([[Browse]], [[Write]], [[Record]], etc.). Currently "Draw" is tagged for deletion; I'm going to move the tag to "Drawing Activity" instead. —[[User:Leejc|Joe]] 13:30, 26 October 2007 (EDT)

Feature Requests

It would be really cool to have something like the dynamite feature in KidPix. You know, the anticipation of the explosion, the excitement of the destruction, etc. Obviously the metaphor might need some updating to something less violent... but it should be equally fun. -Molly Crowther, molly.crowther@students.olin,edu

A flood of water, washing the image away? Like dumping out a cup of water. There could be variants, like a jet incrementally sweeping the page. Whirlpool. Multiple meeting waves. Rain. Could have a drying out with shrinking puddles. Perhaps this should go on Art Wanted? MitchellNCharity 10:22, 8 July 2007 (EDT)

Stamps seem popular. And kids could share and modify them. MitchellNCharity 10:22, 8 July 2007 (EDT)

Tux Paint comes with stamps. As a whole I'd say that program is way more kid-oriented and featureful than this one. AlbertCahalan 21:45, 7 January 2008 (EST)

Once there is a Jigsaw puzzle activity, one could use drawings with it.

Merging with Drawing Activity

As someone else points out, this page ("Draw") covers the same aspects as the "Drawing Activity" page... Why was another page made? More stuff links to the Draw page, and the activity is actually called "Draw", so I think the other page should be deleted and its contents used to replace this one. This would be in keeping with the naming scheme of other activity pages (Browse, Write, Record, etc.). Currently "Draw" is tagged for deletion; I'm going to move the tag to "Drawing Activity" instead. —Joe 13:30, 26 October 2007 (EDT)

We should figure out the name for this and Web asap.

Overview

The Paint Activity (formerly known as Draw) allows a child to draw free form designs. A Getting Started Guide is available.
