At my elementary / Jr high school we had one Apple II in each classroom, which was fun to play Oregon trail and number munchers on. The 'computer lab' had a bunch of IIgs (color! woo!) and Macs, allowing one class at a time to come in for an hour or so. Usually it was Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing, ClarisWorks (word), some LOGO programming application, and KidPix.
KidPix was the big hit, it got everyone into the joy of computing, it tought kids how to save files, use disks, make copies, and it kept the ImageWriter color dot matrix printer buzzing for the whole hour.
The "oh no" undo sound gives me so much joy. Thanks to whoever did this.
