ABC123 | Alphabets and Numbers Windows Game/Application for Curious Toddlers

My daughter Eva started identifying alphabets and numbers this summer, and one day she noticed the laptop keys have alphabets on them and she was curious.

I opened up a text editor and set extra large font size and she was thrilled to see the letters coming up on the screen. But she started hitting control and other special keys that she dit not recognize, the application focus will move out on the random key strokes etc.

So I looked up one of my old win32 aplication source and created this bare bones single window application that will go full screen and will only respond to alphanumeric key strokes and won't lose focus.

Even with her short attention span she plays with it every day once at least.
