There is a trial version of this product available with a very generous 45 day trial period. I think the ITCs working with kids in the younger years and definately in areas where literacy may be an issue should look at this add-in for the MS-Office range of products. I would love to hear if and how it is deployed.

Max's Toolbox 2010 is an early childhood interface to Microsoft® Office suitable for children in grades K through 5. The flexibility of the programs makes them suitable for teaching children of all capabilities.

A suite of three products – MaxWrite for Microsoft® Word, MaxShow for PowerPoint®, and MaxCount for Excel – gives teachers a platform for incorporating technology across a wide range of subjects and lesson plans.

There is a downloadable demo available
