At the Pinnix house, we have been test driving the HP PhotoSmart Touch Smart Webprinter, and absolutely loving it! My kids are constantly finding new activities and coloring sheets to print out themselves, since the printer has it’s own internet connection. And the best part is: They don’t have to use (or mess up) my computer! I love it when my four year old comes running into the kitchen, saying, “Mom! I found a (enter newest Disney, Pixar or Nick feature here)!” Then, she runs to the utility room to drag out the crayons. The other day, they found paper dolls and had a field day in the kitchen!
So I wanted to share the latest creations from our family! My kids usually take things way beyond just printing and coloring. They use the HP Printer as a starting point, and make all kinds of “inventions.”
The latest HP-Disney collaboration is the Mickey and Friends Mashup Masterpiece on Disney.com. Here’s all the info from HP:
