Hardware recommendation to control LEDs individually

[QUOTE="fluidistic, post: 6097913, member: 122352"] My two years old son loves lights and computers. I was thinking to buy an Arduino or a Raspberry pi like single board to control a LED matrix panel. What I want is to be able to control individual LEDs by pressing on keys on a keyboard. Example: by pressing "a", a LED lights up, "b" another LED lights up, "a" + "b" both LEDs light up, etc. A sort of LED piano. Which hardware would you recommend for that purpose? Is a matrix panel even a good option? Maybe something much simpler would do it... Do I even need an Arduino board (for the pins I guess?). I have a laptop with USB connections. I only know some Python, not C or C++. I do not have a lot of time to spend on learning new stuff, so the simpler option the better. I do not want to be involved in a time consuming project. [/QUOTE]
