Freeware For You and Your Children
The newest addition to the Burnham family was born just hours ago. As such, Brian is out learning how to be a new father. In celebration of this wonderful moment, I’ve managed to dig up a small selection of freeware that will benefit you and your children. And, as an added bonus, all PayPal donations from Friday, Saturday, and Sunday will be donated to Brian, his wife, and the new little Burnham.
Do you and/or your kids miss KidPix? Then I strongly recommend that you try Tux Paint . Tux Paint is a paint application that is aimed towards young children (similar to KidPix). Tux Paint features basic drawing tools, designs, colors, and a downloadable stamp set.
Are you obsessed with the growth of your child? If you have ever been curious to follow the growth of your child (or yourself) the same way that the doctor does, “this program will allow you to do that using the same charts that your doctor probably uses.”
BlockXXX is a Firefox extension which scan pages for words commonly found on “adult entertainment” sites. If the words are matched, BlockXXX will disable all images and links.
While you busy child-proofing Firefox, why not add a cute, child-like theme?
Thanks for joining me this week. I hope some of this week’s freeware finds are useful to you and your children.
And, congratulation to both Brian and his wife!
