Babies are constantly trying to make sense of the word that they live in. If the letters appeared from left to right on the screen in the sequence that they are typed (a bit like typing in a word document but without the associated risk to the computer) children will be able to see and figure out that their actions have a direct effect on the computer. This may also reduce the need for smashing as another visitor noted.

It would be cool to have a greater selection of cursors and some bigger ones with trails perhaps? My 2 year old likes using the mouse and watching the cursor... it would be cool if u could change it to some different things... maybe a little car, or a bird, or a ribbon. and maybe some rollover effects on shapes or something... anything to add to the mouse moving experience.... You could control a torch with the mouse to light up different areas, or a magnifying glass. What do you think?

your app is fantastic i use it to teach special needs children. it would be fantastic if the voice would use phonic sounds as schools use phonics to teach reading and pronunciation. Also maybe adding picture with sound e.g car or use instructions e.g enter key I am hungry with a picture etc. it will also help baby to communicate

I suggest that you control the special keys as HIBERNATE, SUSPEND AND SHUTDOWN because baby like thats!!!

What about a Windows Store App with touch friendly features?

Win+L is not locked, my 8 month found that out in two minutes, then starting to lock my account with to many invalid password attempts.

I always use Baby smash with a transparent background so I can read stuff on the internet while our toddler keeps smashing away.

It's slightly annoying that to scroll a webpage down for more content I need to exit Baby smash completely and then restart it again which takes at least 10 seconds. It would be great to have the option to leave the mouse untouched or optionally to have a way of temporarily pausing the app without fully exiting it.

On my XP laptop this is the slowest starting application by miles (years) and my 9 month old boy does not yet have any patience. What does the application do that takes it so long to get going?

Other than that a great idea and a great tool

I did this manually, but before I did my laptop took more than one snooze due to baby hands. I'm guessing you may have thought of this - my thought was since this probably prompts a bunch of nagging questions about permissions (assuming it's possible via API) that it could maybe be a one time install option if a runtime (only while BabySmash is running) option isn't practical.

Also, great app, my (11 m/o) son loves it. Only downside: Laptop seen as toy :)

with earwigs, frogs, spiders, birdies, butterflies, mice etc, when keyboard mashed by paws.

This would be a great app for all smart phones!

My now-kids have been smashing on Baby Smash since they were babies. Entertainment awesomeness. YOU ROCK! Thank you!

Its very nice app for parents to protect their laptops from innocent kids. I recommend to all parents.

My comment is CON-GRATS' for an outstanding program

It would be good to have an option where specific shapes are mapped to specific keys, rather than random.
Our 18mo loves BabySmash and especially loves the stars (she asks to play it by saying "Dar!"), and she can pick out specific keys. So if I press Ctrl and get a star, she then presses Ctrl and is disappointed if she gets a different shape. It would be good to have a mode where the shapes were predictable.
