Tux Paint is a simple and fun drawing program for young children. It includes a basic set of tools, including paintbrush with numerous brushes, outlined and filled shapes, a collection of over 250 predrawn or photorealistic images which can be placed in the drawing ("rubber stamp" or "stickerbook" style), and a number of filters, called "Magic Tools." It includes many sound effects as well as Tux the Linux penguin, who gives tips as you use the program. It has been translated into nearly 70 languages (incl. Spanish, German, French, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Greek, Hebrew), and is also available for BSD, Mac OS X and Windows.
