Games for kids I would recommend are: Frozen Bubble, many of the games 
installed with the packages gnome-games and kde-games (Mahjong and 
Shisen-Sho pwn!). On the graphic/action side of things, I would 
recommend Chromium (a scrolling 3D space ship action-arcade-like game), 
Racer and Torcs are good as well... if you want to know more about these 
games, please visit www.happypenguing.org :-)
