> Petri simulates life forms living in petri dishes. You create your

> Petri's Easy view lets you skip the genetics and make simple species

> genetic traits and behaviors-the children can inherit different
> traits from their parents, and as a group the species can adapt to
> the environment.

> Petri's Easy view has interface elements (icons, pictures) which
> help early reading children recognize parts of the program. Easy
> view was tested on a first grader ... she loves squirting life forms
