Of course, I added the ticket so it wouldn't be forgotten.
Thinking on this a bit better, Etoys _is_ more inviting to kids, than
Construct. In a way, it is a game whose rules kids must learn (logic,
geometry, vectors, forces) to make things happen. And If I understand
correctly, that is the purpose of Etoys, to teach science to kids, by
giving them "scientific constrains" so they learn "powerfull ideas".
