This is why my kids get to use the PC in the living room. Wireless keyboard and mouse, gcompris from boot until they are a bit older.
Though I am thinking of moving it all onto the htpc so its JF, emulators, gcompris, etc, but I haven't decided how I want to do that yet. I was thinking of doing NFC for login, but my youngest is creative and would figure out he could grab mom's phone to get game access.
TBD. And a huge digression.
