DoudouLinux - The computer they prefer!

“DoudouLinux reveals to children the creative, educative, cultural and fun potential that is lying dormant inside every computer.”

DoudouLinux is specially designed for children to make computer use as easy and pleasant as possible for them (and for their parents too! [1]), while taking care of children self-fulfillment. DoudouLinux provides tens of applications that suit children from 2 to 12 years old and gives them an environment as easy to use as a gaming console. Kids can learn, discover and have fun without Dad and Mum always watching!

But DoudouLinux also makes it easy for Dad and Mum. Available as an autorun CDROM, DoudouLinux does not need installing. It does not touch the data in the computer it runs on, nor the system installed on the computer. Shipped with built-in content filtering, it prevents children from accidentally visiting unsavory web sites [2]. It also preserves user privacy on the Internet, removes ads in web pages and blocks bugs, to get the best web experience. You can carry it everywhere and let children on any computer without worrying. DoudouLinux can be lent, offered, loaned, copied as often as you want. Just like they do on the school playground! This is fully legal, so DoudouLinux is really risk free from all points of view.

DoudouLinux also aims at making computers accessible to all children on earth, with no discrimination, to incite them really master technology – read our manifesto. For this reason the DoudouLinux.org web site lets you freely download full versions and will always do so. No need to ship advertisement, no need of an AppStore, no hidden fee or intention, DoudouLinux is designed by a community of parents for parents and their children. If your really appreciate our work, we invite you to support our project by making a donation or by purchasing products.

Moreover, DoudouLinux is available in many languages so that each child will feel comfortable when he begins reading. We currently support 44 languages [3]. More than 60 languages can be generated [4], but translation quality is, unfortunately, not homogeneous between languages [5]. If you would like to help translating your language, please get in touch.
