Tux Paint: Open Source Drawing Software for Children

• "I can't begin to tell you how much my grandchildren (ages 5 & 7) are enjoying this program. It has just the right mixture of simplicity and complexity to enable them to do most projects without assistance, and yet keep them challenged to learn how to do new and interesting things with it. It is helping them learn computer skills in a fun and interesting way. Thanks for your work in developing this program!" - Karlyn N.
• "This software is simply genius, my grand children enjoy [it]" - JP, Paris, France
• "I have been playing with this software with my 5 yr old daughter (who has Down's Syndrome) for about 5 minutes (really thats all!) and it is just fantastic! Some of the features that I really appreciate are: full screen without the obvious 'quit' buttons (so she won't keep asking me to restart the program), and the grab cursor thingy that stops her working outside the program is such a brilliant idea! She uses a pen and tablet rather than a mouse as it helps her writing skills, and this works very well with your program. Thank you very much!" - Nigel Meek
• "Just heard your interview on Jumping Monkeys, and wanted to drop you a quick note to say thanks for your work on Tux Paint. My daughter started using it as soon as she could hold a mouse click, at about 2 1/2, and still loves it at four. And I set up a couple of old P3 Edubuntu machines for her preschool class, and just about every morning when I go to drop her off, the kids are on the computers, most often creating something in Tux Paint." - Bill Kennedy
• "I just had to tell you that [our daughter] is absolutely in love with Tux Paint. I know I told you that, but it's freaking me out that she is only 3 and can operate it all on her own. She knows how to change the background, change stamps, go from one brush type to another and change colos - she learned how to use it so quickly! So, I thank you. And [my daughter] thanks you! :)" - Patti M., Sacramento, California, USA
• "I just installed Tux Paint 0.9.17 and gave it a test run. Wow; I'm more excited than a banana boat full of monkeys on steroids! My grandchildren will absolutely love it. Tux Paint is made for ages 3-12 and 54. ... I can't wait to share this with everyone I know." - Dennis V. DiGennaro
• "I discovered Tux Paint about two years ago -- I was looking for a drawing program for my son, then four years old. He lives in Mexico, and there was no way of getting something quickly for the mac. It is his favorite --- and until recently only program. Whenever anyone had a computer open, he would ask 'Donde esta el penguino?' -- 'Where is the penguin?' He has had and continues to have great fun with Tuxpaint. Much better than those damn video games. I thank you so much for making this possible." - James Carlson
• "I downloaded Tux Paint for my god-daughter... who is seven. I have purchased and used photo editing software (Photoshop Elements, Photobrush, Jasc Paint, etc.) and painting sofware for many years and it takes alot to impress me. This program, however, is just wonderful. I am anxious to see how much she enjoys it and I, also, plan to pass on your website to other friends. Okay... I confess... I'm sure I will 'play' with it myself." - Ann
• "I just wanted to thank you so much for creating and distributing TuxPaint. It is our 3-year-old son's favorite activity. It's been an amazing creative outlet for him--he loves to make up stories while he draws. We've been impressed at how intuitive and fun it has been for him. Keep up the good work!!"
  - Ashley
• "I have downloaded Tuxpaint for my 5 year old daughter who loves it, and I can't get her off it. Since using Tuxpaint, her creative and linguistic skills have come on leaps and it has also developed her IT skills because she now saves every image she has created. ... Thanks for people like you that believe in open source software."
  - Patrick
• "I have 3 kids; a five year old and 3 year old twins. Now that I've downloaded Tux Paint I can't keep them off my machine. They can't get enough of it. Great job and thanks for creating quality software for young kids that's free, to boot!"
  - Chris Bien

  - Dr. Clive Bennett
• "You've done it! You've created a functional, powerful, FUN piece of software my four-year-old can use! I probably looked like a big goofy chimp here for about 20 minutes as I took Tux Paint for a spin at my local coffee shop. I swear I was grinning. Not just at the pure whimsey of the software but also the fact its multi-platform, open-source, and appears to be infinitely and simply customizable. What a triumph!"
  - Peter Thompson
• "I just wanted to say that my daughter loves your program. I do too, as it's intelligently put together with children in mind, as well as making it difficult for them to mess about with any other settings."
  - Bill Allen

  - Rich Kulesus
• "My kids have tried paint programs before and lost interest in less than a minute or two. Tux Paint has kept them busy for hours and enables them to explore their imagination. My youngest one (8 yrs) can hardly wait to submit some of his art. I was completely shocked to see them finally doing something creative instead of wasting the whole afternoon with TV or video games."
  - Tim Jorgenson, Harrisburg, South Dakota USA
• "I've got Tux Paint for my little daughter and she is very happy. It's wonderful!"
  - Ann N.

  - Patrick Orum
• "I introduced this to my sister's daughter (5-6 at that time) and son (3 or 4) and they just loved it. ... The rubber stamps and sounds are brilliant and it seems that nowadays one can post the masterpieces to be displayed in the tuxpaint pages, which may be quite exciting..."

  - Paul Evans
• "Tux Paint Rocks!!! Today my daughter [...] who just turned 4 came to me and asked to play that new game ... I duly booted Knoppix on the old Win98 machine that they usually play games on and brought up Tux Paint! I then went back to what I was doing and enjoyed 2 hours of peace." [ed: Tux Paint is available for Windows98!]
  - Todd Trichler
• "I would like to thank you for Tux Paint. My four-year-old Billy and I have tons of fun painting things. Not only is Tux Paint great for kids, it gives parents like me an easy way to teach our children the mechanics of art with a mouse, which they can easily extend to traditional paper-based art. Tux Paint encourages Billy to be creative with an easy-to-use, game-like interface."
  - Chris Guirl
• "I tested this with a 3 ½ year old and she loves it."
  - Matrik
• "I am not often impressed with free software for education but this one looks promising. It is a painting program that was developed for younger grades. Some possible uses: Primary teachers creating identification worksheets, money, foods, letters, numbers. Students creating a picture to write a story about. Students [creating] a picture of a story they have read."
  - Jeff Hogan
• "Just a few words to tell you that though I'm not exactly its 'target,' I got completely seduced by Tux Paint while discovering it on the Freeduc-CD project! I spent hours on it the first time I launched it and had quite a lot of fun! :)"
  - Jeremie Zimmerman

  - Janek Kozicki
• "It's very nice tool, I have searched program like this, recently, for my 4-years-old cousin."
  - Barthec
• "My daughter loves Tux Paint. I have an icon for it on a hideaway Gnome panel. She just clicks and paints. [She] knows how to save and retrieve an already-saved item now, too. Her favourite at the moment is to use make 'rainbows', then fill the background with 'stars', then use the fill tool to make the background 'night'. The combination of things like stamps and easy to use colourful drawing tools with more traditional freehand and shape tools is a great asset for kids. ... Friends who come over are rather impressed at Tux Paint and have told me that they havn't seen its equal on Windows..." [ed: Tux Paint is available for Windows!]

  - 'Sasquatch666'

Thanks for the great program."
  - David Brown

  - John
• "My 5 year old loves it too, very easy to create some really good stuff. One of her friends came 'round with a bunch of Barbie CD's a while back, after explaining the benefits of free software my daughter fired Tux Paint up and we never heard another peep out of them all night. ;^)"
  - 'NFFC'
• "Tux Paint is a really fun program for young kids. It even managed to keep my 2 year old entertained for 20 minutes -- which is a long time for a kid that age. It is a basic painting program, but with a lot of bells and whistles a young kid would like. It also has big easy buttons that are easy for children to navigate. ... It is really quite nice for children between 2 and 7. There is also a full screen option which makes it much easier for the kids to click away."
