Betreff: Programming for Kids
Hi All,

While my two boys (ages 9 & 13) are at home for the summer I currently keep them active by giving them fun math and science projects.

I had the idea to have them become more familiar with basic programming concepts and perhaps be able to write the proverbial"hello world" program.
I believe that programming (of any kind) is a required, core competency skill required for any kind of work in the 21st century, whether that work is in the tech industry or not.

Does anyone know of some resources for simple and fun programming projects for kids. I don't particularly care about which language, but we are on Windows platform.

Any ideas would appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter
