Colors!
Colors is a simple natural media painting activity for the XO laptop. For more details, see the original development wiki page (hosted by Robert Anderberg): [[1]]
Rather than constructing images from geometric shapes, the user is encouraged to keep painting on their work until it looks right, starting with rough strokes and then adding extra details.
The activity features soft brushes, collaborative painting, the ability to watch tutorial paintings as they are painted, and a variety of input methods including "video paint" using the webcam.
