Do a Google search for windows curses, there are at least
a couple of options. I've no experience of how well they
work however because...

...as a last resort, install cygwin and use the
Python that comes with cygwin which includes a curses module
that works with the cygwin bash terminal. But cygwin is big
and probably a sledgehammer for your nut if all you want is
curses.
