Children's Computer Software
Personal Computers are designed so one size fits all. Some of its features are difficult for young children to use. Some examples are the mouse, the graphics interface, and disk operations. PCs can be made more child-friendly by using special devices and software designed for children. For instance, replacing the mouse with a device that fits a child's hand makes using the computer a lot easier. Similarly, software programs that place an animated interface on the screen allows children to run their favorite programs without knowing how to use Windows. The links contained herein offer information about computing and computer software for children and young adults.
