[OPLINTECH] Reading Literacy System (software/OS ect)

[Tim Burns]

Dear Folks, 


The Childrens Departments provides a workstation for young readers that is configured with a few software titles that encourage reading skills. The system is aging, as are the programs that run there. 


I have shown the Department Staff the alternative (free open source software) QIMO. http://www.qimo4kids.com This has piqued their interest. Wondering if there are "literacy" specific systems? I found Kiddix and doudou (sp?) when I searched... 


Has anyone built a "really cool" literacy oriented "kid" system? As with any public facing system, the less maintenance / interventions the better.
