Good Morning All, The link is to a set of Etoys projects for the Orpheum Children's Science Museum in Champaign,Illinois. http://etoysillinois.org/library?tags=At%20the%20Orpheum
The director asked that the projects be made for very young visitors to play with independently using the smart board in the museum's lobby. Perhaps you might find a use for these projects too. I would welcome comments and suggestions if you try them with children. Regards,
Nice projects!
You state 'very young visitors'. I would expect such kids to explore interaction through voice. You could have projects that use sound attributes (e.g. pitch - move, volume - turn) from the world menu to control movement. I am sure there are folks in this mailing list who can come up with suitable computations to detect noise, applause, sighs, yelps and whistling. It won't be long before the kids learn to whistle tunes ;-).
