Wonderful (as usual).<div><br></div><div>I love the idea of using these on a Smartboard where kids can play with them and everyone can see.</div><div><br></div><div>Some ideas:</div><div>1) For Pencil Art - Allow the kids to:</div>

<div><ol><li>Modify the colors in the pencil</li><li>See and change the script values so they can see how changing the numbers make different designs</li></ol></div><div>2) For Red Rim/Orpheum Puzzel (and any Tanagrams in general)</div>
<div><ol><li>Allow the kids to rotate and flip the objects</li><li>Allow the kids to create their own tanagrams (this might be better at a touch screen station where kids can build and share their projects - which get posted to the Museam Lobby with appropriate credit and a picture of the kid who created it).</li>

<br>
The link is to a set of Etoys projects for the Orpheum Children&#39;s Science Museum in Champaign,Illinois.

<br>
The director asked that the projects be made for very young visitors to play with independently using the smart board in the museum&#39;s lobby. Perhaps you might find a use for these projects too. I would welcome comments and suggestions if you try them with children.<br>


Regards, <br>
Kathleen</div>
