Hi, I tried several tools with my 10 years old son and what he found the best (yes, it should be them, not you :) ) is the Scratch (http://scratch.mit.edu/[^]. It's is very easy to get started and the programming uses a visual approach. After a while, I could see my son can now understand perfectly the logic of all basic programming structures (loops, ifs, variables, etc). Regards Paulo
