Oficina is one of the Paint Activities for Sugar. It has a lot of tools like brushes, eraser, forms and text. The objective of the current project is to develop a new tool for Oficina. This tool is a programmable brush with kids can write your own brushes.

In Turtle Art Activity there already is a way to plug a python code to add new block's functions. The idea is add a similar feature to Oficina. Sugar has already a python editor called Pippy. Using this kids can developed or edit your own brush and import your custom code into Oficina using the Pippy button.

Other important functionality is that children can share their brushes since Sugar 0.84 already allows users to take any item in the Journal and send it to anyone else. There are already some available tools for default but kids can modify or delete this.
Oficina is developed in Python using PyGTK library and the bucket tool is implemented in C language. I will use these technologies in my project.
