I second that.  My 3-year-old son built a computer for himself by  
drawing a keyboard on a donut box with crayons.  He's 'worked' on his  
computer many times since then.  He's provided detailed explanations  
from him about what the various buttons do.

Another good idea.  Keyboards are easy to get at goodwill if you don't  
already have a spare.  Plugging the cord into a cardboard box helps  
get things rolling.
