The most powerful weapon for changing the world

I have been thinking about teaching my children programming. They are 10 and 9 now and have shown some interest in other coding related activities like code.org and Scratch. This may be more wishful thinking on my part. I would really love for them to learn programming because I know I enjoyed it from a young age.

Now is as good a time as it is ever going to be so let's get started!

I have gone back and forth with the right approach and have tried a few things. I considered Go as a first language but finally decided to go with JavaScript because I wanted to start without having to talk about types too much.

Let's see how it goes!
