A question for parents out there with small children. When do you think it is appropriate to introduce the young one to programming languages such as LOGO? I remember playing with it in gifted classes when I was in elementary school on an old Apple, but I'm sure I was in 5th or 6th grade at the time, just because that is when we first got the machines. Do you think it is easy enough for a first- or second-grader to pick up, or should I wait until he's older? Are there other languages out there that are as easy for young ones to pick up?
Did you try KTurtle?
