  Nuclear and particle physics are the core components of most undergraduate
and postgraduate physics courses worldwide. While few fundamental concepts like
particle counting and detector characterisation are taught in tandem with
laboratory sessions, advanced techniques like cross-section measurement, track
reconstruction, etc., are usually not taught extensively. At the same time,
modern particle physics experiments require students to have advanced skills in
statistical treatment of data, which cannot be covered in detail in the regular
coursework. A software named Simple has been developed to simulate particle
physics experiments, based on which, skills necessary for particle physics
studies can be easily imparted. Simple is based on Geant4 libraries, widely
used by the high energy physics community to simulate particle interactions
with matter. Unlike Geant4, Simple is designed to be a standalone application
requiring no prior programming knowledge to run a simulation and the time
consuming compilation step is also avoided. In this paper, the features of this
software along with few sample simulations are presented. Though the emphasis
of this paper is on the use of Simple as a pedagogical aid, this application
can also be used as a general purpose simulation framework for particle physics
analyses.
