We should have a sticky on teaching kids to program, just about everytime I could on here theres a new "What language to use for teaching kids" thread

So how about it?

Yes, and you can help: collect some links to past discussion, and write basic write-up, then ask to make it a sticky.

A sticky? No, but a link in the sticky, sure.

We have threads about children programming in the sticky, you should start with that to see what is lacking.

My personal opinion, children should be active. Programming should be learned when one is essentially an adult and by choice. Children have no special programming needs.
