Crayola Magic Princess, which can be used alone or as an add-on to IBM's Crayola Magic Wardrobe, allows girls to design and color outfits for princess figures, while they learn about four historical time periods. As with Magic Wardrobe the program's main screen features a paper doll in a historical room setting. The user clicks on the wardrobe to the left of the screen to choose between Ancient Greece, Old Japan, Medieval England and the French Empire. If Magic Wardrobe is also installed on the computer, the time periods from that program will be available as well. The user can skip around between the two programs without changing disks. Each era includes authentic clothing, hair, headdresses and footwear with which to adorn the paper doll. This clothing can be altered and decorated using 72 Crayola colors, coloring tools and various stylish stamps. It can then be printed to use with the included cardboard paper doll. Additional dolls can be printed from the program at any time. Three bonus activities round out Magic Princess, including a 'Women in the News' section which delves into the lives of four famous princesses, a Diary section, and a 'Write a Letter' section with royal stationery to decorate and print.
