The present invention provides a computer mouse adapted for use by children wherein the mouse has a housing which is ergonomically designed for use by an operator having small hands. Enclosed within the housing is an X-Y generator which enables the determination of relative movement of the housing on a surface, wherein this information is translated into a movement of the "cursor" on the display device of the computer system to which the computer mouse is interconnected. Further interconnected with the housing are first and second buttons common to a typical computer mouse, wherein these buttons enable the activation of one or more responses from the computing device upon the depression of these buttons commonly referred to as "clicking". The first and second button s are designed in a manner that they extend beyond the perimeter of the housing. In this manner the force to be exerted by a child in order to depress one of these buttons is reduced due to the lever arm that is associated therewith, when compared to the required activation force of a smaller button which would be associated with a typical mouse that has been reduced in size. In addition, by the extension of these buttons the identification thereof by a child is simplier and therefore operation of the buttons can be more convenient.
