Ask HN: Website or software to teach young kids to type and mouse
Does anyone know of any good websites to teach kids how to type and/or use the mouse? My kids already have the touchscreen thing down, but are lacking keyboard skills.
I remember a software in school where you type and bubbles come up and push away little animated fish. (It was a long time ago).

The right mouse button can be mapped to the left, or to an animation that explains left/right buttons. You can make Tux Paint full-screen. You can disable the normal way to exit, leaving only a non-obvious key sequence. Tux Paint uses a fixed-location save directory, so there is no way to browse around and mess with the OS.
