Hi,
    Playing with Guido Van Robot http://gvr.sf.net is another good option to 
teach programming to young ones. Rurple is just another graphic representation 
of the gvr.

Subject: Re: [Tutor] Use Python to learn kids (9 yr) to program


HI-

I think Python is a great choice.

You may want to have a look, as a first step, at rur-ple 
<http://rur-ple.sourceforge.net> .  Then, as a next step (although it might be 
a bit steep), you may want to have a look at livewires 
<http://www.livewires.org.uk/python/> .   This will provide a good introduction 
to pygame <http://www.pygame.org> .

        Hi!
        
        I have looked around for som language to use to learn my 9 year son
        programming.
        
        There is a KPL - Kids Programming Language but my son diden't grasp the
        OO, GUI and everyting around this, maby becurse English is not his 
spoken 
        language, and for a beginner i think the inviroment was to complex.
        
        So my plan is to use Python, has anyone try to learn kids this way, and
        could
        giv som ide how-to.
        I witch way to introduce every part of the language,,, 
        
        best regards
        Anders
