It aims at making computer use as simple and pleasant as possible; while also making computer use more accessible to all children on earth, without discrimination, in order to favor their self-fulfillment. In this section you will learn more about how it works, how it is designed, who developed it, how it came to be, why, and so on

Say you have some kids in your house and want to introduce them to Linux, DoudouLinux is a great one. You might be wondering why DoudouLinux, despite the fact that we have other Linux distros targeted at kids especially at the ages of 2 to 4, this is also a great choice.

DoudouLinux is a Debian based distro. The current release is DoudouLinux 2.0. It has a lot applications ranging educational to entertainment. And not to forget all the games are very educational. Making learning very easy and interesting for the kids as well. Some of these application train the kids in improving mouse and keyboard drills. DoudouLinux is also portable.

I spent more than 2 hours just enjoying the sections under the “Learn” tab above. That is the alphabet association in which the computer pronounces the alphabet and you click on it. If you are not able to do so it will help you after some time of delay.
