Toddler PC software (and apppriate input device?) 2

An anonymous reader writes "I have an 18-month-old who loves bright screens (TV and computer), loves loud noises, and loves to mash buttons. He targets my laptop with the button-mashing, and I sort of hate having to tell him "no" when he wants to explore a computer. I was wondering if anyone knows of some fun (and maybe educational) age-specific PC software that also comes with an age-appropriate input device. I've seen those big-button devices in retail stores that seem to just hook up to the TV, and I've also seen some PC software that requires keyboard/mouse input, which does not seem like the right input device for a toddler."

  • My oldest son's first electronic toy was a VTech "boombox". He is now 28 and I just dug that toy out of a storage box and gave it to his daughter, my 1 year old granddaughter, to play with. It still works! I couldn't keep her away from my IPhone and laptop, so I found something 'gadgety' for her to haul around the house. By the way, she also loves her blocks, stuffed toys, rattles, and any old cardboard box that may be handy! :)

The only thing better than love is milk.
