What could be the best way to introduce the world of computers to a kid, let’s say of 6 years old, so that he learns to handle it like a toy and stops dreading it like some esoteric, arcane and recondite machine from some eldritch, enigmatic, cryptic and phantasmal world ?
I got mine a comic book which introduces making simple games in mit scratch. The kid loved the comic, read it multiple times. We sat together and entered the game, had a lot of fun changing the characters, and never did that again (I’m not pushing). The computer is still a boring thing dad does for work.
It doesn’t help that I can’t explain what I’m doing on my computer on the few times the kid bothers to ask. I’m writing a program that transforms this wall of text into that spreadsheet 🥱
Care to name the comic? My kid likes going onto scratch and checking out other people’s stuff, and made a few little animations himself…but the whole thing is a bit overwhelming at first.
