About

I have written a public domain program (called KidKeys) for pre-schoolers. I have a two year old, and found that there is very little commercial software available for children who type and click, but can not yet track a mouse. When a letter or number key is pressed, my program displays that letter or number in large colorful type, and says it using my voice. The entire program is designed very simply to make it as bug free as possible. Those of us with children know how useless it is to say, "Please sit patiently while I reboot with extensions turned off". You can download this program from my web site , where I also have the source code posted . KidKeys has been tested on a PowerMac 7600, Quadra 650, and a PowerBook 520c. It runs in less than 400k of RAM. The download size of the binhex file is about 114k.
