Scratch - Introduction to Code
"Scratch is a programming language and online community where you can create your own interactive stories, games, and animations -- and share your creations with others around the world. In the process of designing and programming Scratch projects, young people learn to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively. Scratch is a project of the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT Media Lab." (Scratch Team) Roboteers as young as 6-years-old can learn to program their own animated cards using scratch programming.
