Kids

What do you tell your kids about technology?

What is appropriate use of technology by kids? And how can you possibly set reasonable goals or boundaries for your kids when they live in a world/culture immersed in technology? We don't have all the answers here, but we can offer some good choices of what to do if your a kid and want to be involved with technology as more than a consumer.

Scratch

https://scratch.mit.edu/about/

Scratch is a programming language and an online community where children can program and share interactive media such as stories, games, and animation with people from all over the world. As children create with Scratch, they learn to think creatively, work collaboratively, and reason systematically. Scratch is designed and maintained by the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT Media Lab.

While Scratch is primarily designed for 8 to 16 year olds, it is also used by people of all ages, including younger children with their parents.
