Hi Stephen,
Check out gcompris (it's on the seul/edu application index under
EduGames).
I'm pretty sure this is delivered as part of K12LTSP (which you're
running, right?)
It didn't run out-of-the-box on my K12LTSP, but I didn't have time to
look into it.
I did run it in a non-terminal environment and it is pretty impressive. 
I think it's very close to what you're asking for, and it'd be worth the
time it might take to make it work in K12LTSP.
