I use mamewah for my 6 and 4 year old kids. What I did (and think it would be key for any FE) is changed the default font to a much lager one and added screenshots. They get around in it pretty easy. |

The MALA front end is very nice for you and for the kids ...... it has a completely GUI interface and can use the layouts which are used for MameWah as well so it looks exactly the same. MALA is packed with features and is comparable to MameWah, but I know a new version of MALA is in the works right now and will have more functions which will result in it offering most all of the same features as MameWah (as well as other newer ones)..... Anyway, I started with MameWah, but believe I will end up using MALA since it is just so easy and fast to set up ...... |

my own 2 cents,gameex is the best one going,setting it up is a little intimidating at first but once you get a handle on how it works it's actually very easy.I don't think you will find another fe with better support either. http://www.tomspeirs.com/gameex/ |

That one looks very confusing for small kids in my opinion ...... |

Anything more complex than that is gonna be too hard. |
