Joan, I don't know what to say about the keyboard. But, I do know there is a pointing device that was actually designed for small children that might help. It looks a little like a Playschool toy. It has a big (probably 3" diameter) ball and large buttons. It works like a trackball. If you are interested in more information I can find out who makes it and get back to you. Let me know.
