An application for Kids to practice Addition and Subtraction skills. It utilizes Kivy Gesture recognition, especially for multistroke gesture recognition was just introduced in master branch (1.8.1-dev).

Initially, I've started with Tesseract-OCR to recognize hand writing. However, we also need to train it for difference hand writing styles and is not easily compare to Kivy Gesture recognition process.

Finally, I've decided to use Kivy multistroke gesture recognition instead. This is a good demo application for multistroke gesture recognition.

For more attractive and may also help to improve Listening skills. Application includes Text to Speech (TTS) feature.
