It's not what you asked for, but you should consider Squeak Smalltalk and
eToys.  The GUIs that we use today are largely the work of Alan Kays's
group at Xerox in the 1970s.  Dr. Kay has spent the last 35 years trying to
make computers educational and fun for children.  If you're interested, see

  http://www.squeak.org/     (The Squeak Smalltalk site)
  http://www.squeakland.org/ (The eToys site)

Squeak runs on Linux, MacOS, and even Windows, and it's free.
