I used to have this on a USB key for my daughter from age 2 to 5 (she is now 6).
The UX was terrible, full of inconsistencies, with different icon symbols in different positions from application to application to close windows, confirm menu choices etc.
But my daughter loved it to bits =) Some games are a lot of fun for a toddler.
And guess what, I think the struggle she experienced with the inconsistent UI may have been the best "school" she could have had for "real world" UIs.
At 6yo she is now completely autonomous navigating a Windows environment and any of the multitude of "Frankenstein" UIs I throw at her.
Might even revisit it now for the 1st grade level games I remember she couldn't play back then.
