 Kids find it very hard to read small things. Some of the toolbars in
 various activities are very small for kids to read properly (lot of kids
 have poor eyesight in rural areas)

 Apart from eyesight, it is difficult for them to have the precision to
 maneuver the mouse to small buttons. This is partly attributed to the
 jumpy-mouse bug.

 Some examples

 * Make a painting toolbox in Etoys
 * Blocks toolbox in Turtle Art


 I'd file separate bugs for these, but I would like to suggest a common
 defined format in terms of size (pixels) such that every clickable button
 should not be lower than x by y pixels  and any text should not be smaller
 than z font size
