> For me the goal would be forcing them to learn how this stuff works
Ignoring the hilarity of this comment, that's not really how kids learn.
- "Dad, I'd like to draw a house on this screen"
- "Ok kiddo, first we have to download stage1 tarball from FTP mirror I know the name of without looking it up"
"Dad, can I play a game?"
"No! You're learning Perl now! End of discussion!"
You could do both from the same machine. Just sayin'...
