Absolutely.  Did the student make it with the intention of teaching
younger students?

It is frustrating that when the user clicks on the Sun, it moves to
the front.  Does Etoys have a way to lock it to the back, or will most
10 year olds be quick enough to find the invisible ellipse (Moon) and
bring that back to the front?

Thanks for uploading it!
