So cool to see the Fedora Sugar on a Stick Spin in the wild! @greg installed it on an old MacBook Air for his 2 year old daughter. ❤️

Attached: 3 images It's my daughter's second birthday! I setup Sugar Labs on an old laptop MacBook Air. The laptop had a broken keyboard so I bought her a cheap fun keyboard and mouse combo. Sugar Labs is neat, it's got a simple UI which will help her learn how to navigate and a few simple programs for her to play with. It has a simple Python IDE but it might be a little while until she's ready to play with that. It has a web browser too so I might setup some custom Home Assistant dashboards so she can change the lights, control her train, etc. And I'll see if I can setup Signal or alike so she can call her grandparents. I remember playing on our family Amstrad CPC when I was 4yo. It came with BASIC and it was my first exposure to coding. I want my daughter to have the opportunity to be a creator of tech instead of just a consumer of tech. #Linux #Parenting #2yo #Birthday #SugarLabs #Distro #Fedora #HomeAssistant #Amstrad #AmstradCPC #Signal #Tech #Technology
