So now I need to put on a dog and pony show. It must be so interesting to kids that they don't get bored or fidgit. I think that calls for some sort of action game. And it must clearly demonstrate that it fills an educational need to the parents.
Concentrate more on the latter than on the former. Kids will wiggle and squirm and act bored no matter what: you're an adult, and thus (by definition) boring. Do your best to make engage them, but don't let that overshadow your real mission.
It seems to me that Python + Idle + some of the ideas I've seen expressed on this list would do the trick. Whaddya all think? Kirby -- any ideas?
Sounds like a good idea. However, be sure to keep it simple -- part of Python's beauty (and the beauty of most Open Source apps) is its simplicity.
