On the subject of adapting software for kids...

Good: eliminating or enlarging fiddly things that are hard to control
with the mouse (ESPECIALLY WHEN KIDS MAY HAVE ONLY A TOUCHPAD)

Bad: taking away the grown-up-tool feel (grey 3-D look), making kids
suspect that they have something as worthless as a hollow toy hammer

Good: being really careful to prefer beginner words and simple
sentence structure in the UI
