I have a site that I started working on back in October of this year with the intent of creating a community portal for those interested in this very topic. It is located at www.kidslinux.com.
I suspect my story is the same as many others here. My Windows PC has alot of good educational software and games available for my daughter and does an okay job. But I use and prefer Linux for just about everything else. So when I started looking for alternatives in Linux for my daughter's usage, I found the selection quiet lacking in comparison. Futhermore, as I researched more on the Internet, I found posts from people asking the same questions several years back. It really looks like very little progress has been made. The same questions keep resurfacing. So I hope that the Kid's Linux web site becomes a repository for knowledge gained by the community.
If you check out the site, please do not be disappointed by the lack of content. I'm just getting started really. As time progresses and more members of the community get involved and make suggestions, I think that we will have a nice little site.
