Hi, James - have you looked at the American Printing House  site? They have 
an application called "Braille Bug" with lots of games involving  Braille. 
It is geared to children, but I found it very helpful when I was first  
learning Braille.
 
Here's a link: _http://www.afb.org/braillebug/_

Hope it's useful.

Hello all:
 
Nearly twenty years ago I was taught grade one Braille and I've rarely  
used it since.
 
Aside from printing out the alphabet is there any other means to allow me  
to practice my Braille?
 
I'm thinking like simple kids books that have already been  translated.
