How old are they? My boys are 5 and 9 and they aren't really interested in "programming" but they love the red stone things you can do in Minecraft. Red stone is basically electricity so they have learned to solve real problems and challenges (to them) like creating doors that open with pressure plates, etc. From there we got an AWS IoT button which will spin up a Minecraft server at the touch of a button.

All of this to say it may help to go into their world instead of them coming into yours. Find interesting problems or challenges they are having and show them you can help. Sometimes my being able to do something with programming will get the, "Whoa, how did you do that?!" Response. I don't expect my kids to actually write code right now but they do know that programming is voodoo magic and they are very interested in it.
