2009-02-10 14:53 UTC |
Little Lim Ding Wen in Singapore has written a painting application for the iPhone.
He created the finger painting program, known as Doodle Kids, for his two younger sisters aged three and five.
The program allows iPhone owners to draw images on the handset's touch screen using just their fingers.
The program has been downloaded more than 4,000 times from Apple's iTunes store in less than two weeks.
While most children of his age are painting or drawing with crayons, Lim Ding Wen has been programming.
Lim, who is now fluent in six programming languages, first started using a computer when he was two-years-old, discovered programming aged seven, and has since completed more than 20 programming projects.
