BBC micro:bit V2 - Will be able to get tangible results very quickly.

Start with the simple stuff: https://microbit.org/projects/make-it-code-it/

I find games in scratch are complex and require too much programming knowledge to really get something interesting up and running. The micro:bit on the other hand can do interesting lights, sounds, etc with just the drag and drop of a few lines.

I didn't know micro:bit works with Scratch, thanks a lot!!!

I had plans to make some kind of board with STM32 that could be programmed with Scratch but maybe I will put that project off and use micro:bit instead.

No prob. I'm going through the same process as you at the moment, have been looking at all the options for a while. Micro:bit seems to be the best fit for young learners.
