			* This game can be played as a desktop application, but only on a machine with Gtk (we recommend using Linux). As long as Python, Pygame, and Gtk are installed, simply run PuppysPen.py to play and test. This does not create a Sugar Activity build, but it will still run on an XO the same way.

== Overview ==
Puppy's Pen is an educational game for the XOPC, with the primary purpose of teaching and testing children on their understanding of perimeter and area. Puppy's Pen is designed to teach perimeter and area on a fourth grade level of understanding as defined by the New York State Math curriculum.
Players are required to solve mathematical problems, where they are given a goal amount in number form and must draw a rectangle with the specific parameters to achieve this goal. When a question is answered correctly, the user moves on to a new question, every five questions the parameters change starting with area, then perimeter, then both. After fifteen levels the grid size is increased by two and they start back at area. The changes continue to change in this fashion.
