Inspired by Scratch (http://scratch.mit.edu/) and implemented using Python (http://python.org) and PyGame (http://pygame.org), this project aspires to be a way to make Python approachable for children ... [More] of all ages, but specifically targeting 6-12 year olds. The goal is to make it easy for them to get started with a graphical environment and get things moving and reacting in that environment, and to make it easy to share their projects with others. A parallel goal is to allow them to use the full repertoire of Python, without dumbing it down. [Less]

A silly letter game for toddlers or younger to play. Press letters and see them on screen! Click a mouse and see circles! Click the cat and hear it meow!

Over the years I've built up quite a lot of example code, small projects, and even larger projects, which may be of use to others. This will be a place to share those with others.

Drawing Board is designed to make animation easy for children of any age. It is sketch-based animation with onionskinning and can export to SVG (other formats soon). The application is written in ... [More] Python using the PyObjC bridge. It can be used as an example for learning Cocoa, Python, and PyObjC. [Less]

I'll be adding more features in the ... [More] future. Requirements: Python 2.5 Pygame 1.7 If you want to see how it looks check the Wiki. [Less]

The 50+ demo applications of the turtle module of Python are intended as examples for using Python and turtlegraphics in an educational setting. Since the turtle module offers a lot of features that ... [More] go far beyond of what is known as classical turtle graphics, the examples comprise a wide range of scripts from elementary to rather sophisticated, from drawing graphical patterns to simulation of planetary systems or interacive games like spaceship or tangram. A demoViewer is included that lets you view the source code and execute the demo scripts in parallel. The turtle demo suite for Python 2.5/2.6 contains a backport of version 1.1 of the turtle module, which ships with python 3.1 to python 2.5 and python 2.6. If you use one of these versions, I recommend to replace the turtle module present in your version by the one delivered with this bundle. (Please note the README file) If you like to provide new examples or amend existing ones, please ask me for including you as a commiter of the project.

xturtle.py is a new turtle graphics module, which could (or should?) replace the old turtle.py - if not in python's standard distribution so at least in practical work. ;-) It's intended to be used ... [More] in those educational situations, where an important requirement is EASY ACCESS TO GRAPHICS. It was designed on the basis of many years of teaching introductory courses into programming in Austrian highschools. Turtle graphics is an excellent means for visualizing programming concepts from the very beginning to rather advanced concepts. (This was the reason, why Gregor Lingl used turtle graphics as the central tool for his book "Python für Kids", although python's original turtle.py module has rather limited capabilities.)
