To learn how to work with a computer a toddler needs something simple and computer safe with very noticeable interaction. pyToddler follows this concept (in the example of Crayonify.exe which used C++ and wxWidgets) using Python to allow the games to be easily customized.
Requires:
- Python 2.4
- PyGame 1.7.1
- Toddlers
Includes:
- pyCheese
- pyCrayon
- pyKeys
Designed to help the child practice aiming at a target with the mouse. The goal of pyCheese is to help a friendly mouse eat the cheese that appears on the screen. A big thank you to Cornelius for designing the graphics in the default theme. (Giving the script an argument will present you with the original ugly theme.)
Designed to help the child understand that moving the mouse and clicking the buttons can produce visible results on the screen. This is a near clone of the original Crayonify.
Learn about keyboard interaction while practicing numbers and letters.
NEW pytoddler now comes with a single executable (pyToddler.py) and displays a graphical menu to choose activites. Big thanks to Michael Greb for the idea and some code.
ESC exits from the activites. Alt+F4 exits from the menu.
