Just a quick post about this. I know a lot of people with kids want to be able to play educational games on their computers, and frequently the games don't work on Linux, and the authors aren't terribly interested in supporting linux. In many cases this is abjectly stupid, because the games are either written in Java (which means they should work just fine) but have a Windows installer, or they are written as a browser app, but use Microsoft IE-specific code rather than standards-compliant HTML and javascript.
Well, ABCMouse is a web-based game that actually works on Linux just fine, no tweaking or futzing about required. I set it up for my grand-daughter and she's been having a blast with it. Check it out at www.abcmouse.com.
