Just load up the kids games and edu stuff. Give her all the same stuff
you use and she'll be super happy. Nothing better than a budding kid
nerd :-)
"Kid Mode" is in the network access :-) (block facebook just because)
The kids don't go looking for adult stuff until it's pretty much time
for the talks anyway.
I had one of those and Fedora ran pretty well on it. Hmm. It may have
been older than a 2008. It may have had a ppc chip. I don't recall if
white macbooks were made with intel cpu or not.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
