I teach a computer lesson at elementary school and one day i took with me ken's Labyrinth and Voxlap.I haven't time to show them how to play it but they learned how to play it by themselves at lesson breaks (Kids at age 6-7 amazing).The game is really popular by now after several months have passed and the kids seems to enjoy it. I think Ken's Labyrinth is a great educational game :). Do you have a user friendly editor for Ken's Labyrinth?I plan to teach them 3d graphics design using it.

Re: Ken's Labyrinth still a number one hit
That's really cool that you showed them Ken's Labyrinth : ) I assume you were using Jan Lonnberg's Windows port. Unfortunately, the only map editor I ever made for it is EDITDATA.BAS, which is pretty unfriendly. If you're looking for a simple game editor, here are some suggestions from my site:
Cubes5: The editor may be a perfect fit for your age group. Editing can be done with 5 keys: Insert, Delete, 'V', Tab, and Enter. Editing is done in 3D mode. The downside is there is no game that comes with it.
2Draw: If you don't mind working in 2D, this game comes with a fairly simple map editor. (Also DOS mode.. sound may be bad under XP).
Slab6: The kids may have fun simply by making their own models. In Slab6, you can do basic modelling with just 4 keys: Home, End, Space, and Tab.
I would suggest Build, but those kids are probably not old enough to handle it. : )
