[comp.sys.atari.8bit] ATARI PD/Educational

euloth@dalcsug.UUCP (George Seto) (03/15/88)

I belong to a user group here in Halifax,
    The Nova Scotia Atari Computer Users Group
and we have an on-going project with the local Children's Hospital. We had
arranged to obtain an Atari system, complete with Drive to donate to them.
We are still working with the Hospital's Staff and others to provide additional
items for them. 
 We would like to obtain PD software which is educational in nature and also
games of a non-violent type. This lets out most of the standbys, like Millipede
and Asteroids clones and equivalents, even some Adventures. They rejected
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.
 Would anyone like to suggest software that would be classed under these
categories? Thanks. As for the PD educational and games, if someone would 
also suggest where we might obtain them, ie bbs's preferably in the east
coastal regions of the US or Midwest. or other users groups.

I have been known to call even to California. However we need to know the
names of these programs, and what kind, ie educational or whatever and if
educational, which age/grade level it would fit under. The kids at the 
Isaac Walton Killiam Children's Hospital will be most appreciative.
 Thanks for reading this message.
