When I was learning programming, my coding class used a Bukkit plugin that connected to Python. I can't remember what it was called, but that was for Minecraft 1.7.10.

Not sure if you were wanting Python specifically, but KubeJS lets you use JavaScript for mods. I think there's also a clojure integration.

Thank you. My 3rd grader knows basic python so I'd prefer to stick with that or Scratch
