Dan,

Thanks for that.  I had a wheeled mouse and the wheel just naturally
attracted his fingers and nothing worked because he was constantly playing
with the wheel.  The wheel is rather hard to resist.  ;-)

John,

I have a small mouse that I like a lot.  It's a Fellowes Mini Web Pro - very
small and light.  I also has a wheel between the two buttons which could be
a 'wall' between the two buttons for your son.  This is not wireless, but
has a USB connection.

It also has a Back button, a Forward button, and the wheel is a button, all
of which can be set up to do whatever.

HTH,
Dan Waters

I got a small notebook mouse (wireless) but it doesn't work well.  Eats
batteries (AAA) way to fast to be useful even with the nimh batteries.
