They have an Android tablet of their own that I've configuredb strictly for child use and it has helped them learn many things easily using apps such as Khan Academy Kids and Duolingo Kids. There is precious little beyond that that is not not infested with ads or needs subscriptions that are bound to cost a lot in the long run.

I have an old machine with Debian connected to my TV that I can also attach a PS3 controller to, if needed. What software can I explore in the Debian world that can help my child continue her learning journey. I'm open to suggestions not just for learning tools, but also for games that might help.

PS: they get plenty of outside time too, so that's not a worry. I just want them to explore things and discover things they might like. I'm amazed by their ability of assimilate stuff so any help about diverse things like gamified music theory, art, logic will be highly appreciated.

Cheers!

This looks like a great collection of things that are exactly what I'm looking for and I'm surprised I never saw this mentioned when I was looking for things.

Just a question. It says it's built around KDE. Will it work right on vanilla Debian without jumping through many hoops? I can get around quite well in the Linux world but some things still make me stumble.

I think it's in Debian main repository so it should be fine :)

It won't appears in many research because it's a libre software. And libre softwares get almost no press coverage from medias, so no good SEO for search engines.
