- There are a number of preschool computer programs available via
- anonymous ftp from wuarchive.wustl.edu, in directory /mirrors/msdos/education.
- There is a brief description of the files available in 00-index.txt
- (which is in the same directory). Be sure to download the files as
- binary files. A seesion would look something like this:
-
- ftp wuarchive.wustl.edu
- login: anonymous
- password: your full email address
- cd mirrors
- cd msdos
- cd education
- binary
- more 00-index.txt [if you need a list of files and descriptions]
- get filename
- get otherfilename
- quit

- My son is 2.75 years and he enjoys "babydraw" and "abc430" that we downloaded
- from the above site. Note also that the files are all compressed using .ZIP.
- You can unload a decompression routine from the same site:
- /mirrors/msdos/starter/UNZIP50.EXE
-
- Have fun!
