Alan, An Activity needs to be able to save to and restore from a Journal entry, at a minimum. If possible it should allow collaboration of multiple users. You cannot make a Flash game do this. Running a Flash game or a regular program with a Sugar Activity wrapper is like running MS-DOS programs under Windows 3.1 using a PIF. Either one may satisfy a legitimate need, but it isn't something that should be recommended to anyone. The children who use Activities should get a consistent experience from the Activities they use.
