Programming for children
Can anyone recommend a graphical simple introduction to programming games etc (for Windows) - preferably free! - suitable for a bright 6 year old? I've had Scratch suggested but I know nothing about methods of programming that would be suitable for young children.
Any advice would be welcome.
All advice is offered in good faith only. All my code is tested (unless stated explicitly otherwise) with the latest version of Microsoft Visual Studio (using the supported features of the latest standard) and is offered as examples only - not as production quality. I cannot offer advice regarding any other c/c++ compiler/IDE or incompatibilities with VS. You are ultimately responsible for the effects of your programs and the integrity of the machines they run on.

Well if I didn't have to do all this grown-up stuff all the time I certainly would be playing around with robots.
