| Both my kids use Ubuntu at home; they are 5 &
| 9. They skip easily between Ubuntu & the
| Windows machines they use at school and with
| their friends. They also switch without
| difficulty between applications too. When
| necessary James does his homework in
| OpenOffice.org and takes a USB stick to school
| with the files saved in a nasty proprietary
| format.

Tux Typing for kids- A Tuxy alternative to Mavis Beacon.
,----[ Quote ]
| Mavis Beacon without a doubt, is the most
| popular typing package in the world. However, a
| less known but better alternative to Mavis
| Beacon is Tux Typing. This cross platform open
| source typing application is designed to be
| intuitive, fun and educative with a special
| emphasis on children. It features the ever
| funny Tux-the official mascot of Linux- as the
| tutor.
