Tux Paint is a drawing program designed for young children (kids ages 3 and up). It has a simple, easy-to-use interface, fun sound effects, and an encouraging cartoon mascot who helps guide children as they use the program. It provides a blank canvas and a variety of drawing tools to promote creativity.
Alternatively, X-TuxPaint is also available.

What is this for kids? You have to get the adults to stop playing with this programme! Heaps of fun!! The mum!!
Nice program, I am surprised! Recommended to kids and adults!
My 6 year old baby girl loves playing with this package. Many thanks.
Just unzip the folder then put the period in the alternative saving directory, then at the bottom left hand corner change settings from current user to all users. You don't have to move the .cfg file that way. It'll already be in the app folder.
this is cute!, and it has alot of features to keep your child (or you) busy
Very very good software with all the needed option. Can run full screen...
Thanks a lot
This appears to be new behaviour in 0.9.16. In 0.9.14, it writes to the app folder by default. I will update the synopsis and the version number as well. Thanks!
By default, it writes its data to the windows user folders. The path can be changed with the configuration program - selecting an existing folder in the TuxPaint folder (without any slashes at the beginning). Then it is truly portable.
Btw - nice prog, not only for kids, loads fast and has most of the needed tools onboard :-)
0.9.21.0 is out !!
