Drawing program for young children
Tux Paint is a simple, easy-to-use drawing program for children ages 2 and up.
It provides a fixed canvas size, one-click saving and thumbnail-based browsing and loading.

Tools include a paintbrush, lines, shapes, text too, a large eraser, a rubber stamp tool with dozens of pre-drawn and photographic images, and a collection of "magic" special effects tools. Multiple levels of undo and redo are available.
A cartoon version of "Tux," the Linux penguin helps explain what's going on. Additional stamps, fonts and brushes can be added easily.
Tux Paint has been translated into over 100 languages and is available for Linux, FreeBSD, Haiku, Android, macOS, and Windows.
