BACKGROUND
I created this program so that my toddler would be able to play with
the computer (just like Mommy and Daddy) but without being able to mess
things up. We tried letting her play in Notepad, but it was never
long before she accidentally switched out of the application and into
other things, either by clicking the mouse, or hitting the Windows key,
or whatever.
This program is designed to solve that problem. First, it runs in
a full screen, so that your toddler can't click out of it.
Second, you cannot exit this program by pressing the Windows key, or
Esc, or by clicking the mouse anywhere. Instead, press Alt+F4 to
exit. I'll repeat that, in case you're just skimming this
documentation:
Press
Alt+F4 to exit this program.
Okay, now that I've described that much, I should probably mention at
least in passing what the program does. Basically, it lets your
toddler type text in three large colorful lines, and also draw
psychedelic patterns with the mouse. Click any mouse button to
change the pattern.
BONUS! FREE ADDITIONAL PROGRAM!
Just for fun, I threw in another program called "letters", which has
the same difficult-to-exit properties as Sarah's other program, but
only displays one large letter in the middle of the screen. We
use it to quiz Sarah on the alphabet.
BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!
Also included is a tiny utility that will let you choose the font used
by the other two programs.
