Incorrect. The Adobe AIR SDK allows you to package Flash content as native apps for both iOS and Android. Adobe only halted development on the browser plugin for Android.

Apples and oranges. The example to which I was responding shows it running in a browser.

If the kids are going to share their creations, they need to run in the browser, without requiring installations, app stores, and so on.

As much as it sucks, Flash did have the one big advantage of being ubiquitous. That's no longer the case.
