A little project some friends and I started:

Little Keys is a local art project-meets-computer game, created for the little ones. Using recycled keyboards, Little Keys allows toddlers and young children to finally mimic their computer savvy parents. Kids bang away on brightly colored keys to create playful patterns of letters, numbers, and shapes without parent’s fearing of erasing their address book.

Little Keys was created by a small group of Brooklynites working at web agencies, and the donation of keyboards from The Barbarian Group, Big Spaceship, and Neighborhoodies.

Currently we’re winding down the operation. We participated in a few flea markets, but once we ran out of keyboards we can’t do a whole lot.

If you have a huge collection of USB mac keyboards you want to toss, let us know, and maybe we’ll make another batch in the future:)
