As a non native English speaker I'm not sure if I understand correctly, 
what you mean with whiz-bang graphics. Nevertheless I'd like to point 
you to the new turtle graphics module (which is part of the standard 
librarys since 2.6). At least it was designed especially for use in the 
educational  domain. Moreover the source-distribution also contains a 
bunch of some ten example scripts.

Regards,
Gregor
