KeyWack2.0
Game that allows babies to play with the keyboard.
Overview
KeyWack is a game for people with babies and small children who like to sit at their parent’s computer and bang the keyboard. KeyWack covers the whole computer screen preventing accidental changes to your documents. It makes banging even more fun by drawing pictures, text, shapes and playing random sounds as the keys are whacked. You can also click with the mouse to place a shape at a particular location.
KeyWack has been designed to expand as your child grows in expertise from toddler, intermediate, genius and geek options. It can also display random Bible verses and traveling text such as people's names, cities, states, countries and foreign dictionary words.
