OS for babies

I have a beautiful 7 year old nephew that I love very much. We go out every Sunday to play soccer and just fool around all day. One thing that always has bugged my mind since he was born is finding a way to get him interested in computers from an early age. Not that I am very fond of the idea of sticking a child in front of a computer monitor… I would eternally prefer if we lived in a world were we could live without technological dependence. But I cannot undo evolution and computers are an everyday must. I always wanted to find a way to balance computer knowledge and at the same time prevent him from accessing unsuitable information. I think this is a great solution. Operating system Quimo has it all. Child oriented games, easy bookmarking and an extremely attractive graphical interface. It doesn’t even need installation since it can be launched form a CD.

    What really great software G. I have downloaded a copy and passed it along to the staff member that oversees the mom’s and tots program. This is a really great tool that is very easy to use and install. I set up a couple of old PC’s in the room where the children do their crafts so all the staff member has to do is just drop in the CD and they are ready to go.

  4. i dont have kids but when i do id totally use this or whatever versions r out when the baby machine rolls into high gear cuz im totally with u on this one.
