Is there a modern equivalent of Kid Pix, The Print Shop (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Print…), etc.?
Modern desktop drawing & page layout apps are way too complicated for a 7-year-old. iPad drawing apps are better, but the skills won't really transfer to Figma etc. twitter.com/dubroy/status/…

Seriously thinking of getting an iMac so that we have a family computer my kids can goof around on.
My problem with iPad drawing apps is addressed by one of the guiding principles of Kid Pix: "The program should act like a standard program, so users new to the computer learn basic principles."
