What's a good programming/web language for a young child?
What's a good programming/web language for a young child to learn? My son is 6, and is showing interest in computers, so I figured I'd ask on here.
A colleague of mine suggested BASIC.
I'd ideally want something that could be done through a basic IDE or text editor that could be on both Linux and Windows.
I've already shown my son very, very basic Perl (just a Hello, World). I don't know much about Perl myself, so I'd want something he could grasp fairly easily (since he's 6), and do basic stuff with.
Any thoughts or ideas? Started By Monte on Jun 13, 2011 at 8:27:28 AM |
