Future Mac Addict
She never had a chance, this little girl of mine. Just a year old and she already loves to play on the computer.
Andy installed a program on our laptops that allows her to play with the keyboard and not mess anything up. Unless she drools all over the keyboard or mouse, that's another story. The program is called Baby Banger. It puts up colored shapes and makes noises whenever she hits a key. You have to key in a special sequence of keys to get out of the program, ensuring she won't accidentally quit the program and wreck havoc on the laptop.
We still monitor her closely when she plays with baby banger. She has a tendancy to actually bang the keys, push too hard, and touch the screen. But it lets her feel like she is using the computer, just like mommy & daddy. I figure down the road, once she gets in school, she'll surpass us with computer know how. Then at some point in our lives, she'll install Senior Slapper on her laptop for us to play with...
