Kids Learn to Draw Mickey With Disney’s Creativity Studio

Gift of the DayMashable’s Gift of the Day series highlights cool, interesting and fun products for that special someone on your holiday list.

Know a Disney fan or a wannabe artist? The Disney Creativity Studio app makes a great gift. Through the app, a real Disney artist teaches you how to draw Mickey and other beloved characters with step-by-step tutorials, using your iPad and a stylus.

The Smart Stylus is your creative tool. It feels comfortable in your hand and, of course, features a cheerful picture of Mickey. The stylus magically draws different shapes and textures, like markers, crayons and stamps, as well as a variety of colors and brush sizes. A color palette appears across the top of the screen, and there’s an eraser for those inevitable oopsies. Simply flip the stylus over, just like a pencil.

Dozens of pages of fun activities guide you through tracing and drawing, until you too become a Disney artist â€" or close to it. If you’re feeling inspired, use the free drawing option. Once you’ve created your masterpiece, save or email it to Grandma as a gift. A folder preserves all your completed drawings.

The Disney Creativity Studio costs $49.99 (available at the Apple web store) and is best for ages four and up. The package includes the stylus and a carrying case, as well as a code to download the app for free. Otherwise the app is available for purchase for $3.99 from the App Store.
