Props for LOGO.

I learned that my ten year old was only learning consumption patterns for computers at school.

Web searching and a tiny bit of Office basically.

Something had to change and I've found that several kids are keen enough on LOGO even in our day and age to come to a Saturday morning LOGO lesson in the computer lab.

...even some of the grown ups have started bragging about shapes they built or clever uses of the REPEAT command.

It's just a magically simple analogue for all things code.
