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. -- Senthil

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> . André On 11/29/06, Anders Persson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: 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 _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
