  Hi all,
 Are there any music applications for linux that would be suitable for
 a 10 year old to sit down and have fun without reading any
 documentation? (i.e. something as simple as Mario Paint Composer,
 which I played with and loved as a child)
 I've scanned the list at 
http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/apps/start and
 googled but nothing is jumping out at me.
 Thanks!

Hi Brian,
I still haven't tried them myself, but some of the Sugar programs look
nice and they were developed for children:
