Game program for kids less than 2 years :)

My daughter Mariam (=Mary) one year old always coming to my pc when I doing some work and climbing me then hitting keyboard randomly (oh, the pc gone to be like small cat fall in the pool :( )
I’m decided to save my pc (as possible :) ) then I developed this simple game for kids less than 2 years that thinking the pc is a toy .

Simply the game depend on kid keyboard hitting where the program catch keys events through ProcessCmdKey function by overriding it, game draw different sahpes with different size with different colors in random way, also with each key stroke there is a sound effect.

Program developed using C# language .net 2 you can download the source from here

Enjoy.. don not forget to play with your kid you are the big toy to him
