I have a 12-year-old son who spends too much time playing Xbox live and watching silly YouTube videos. I would like to try to get him interested in programming. Is anyone aware of a good book or website that addresses this concern, preferably (but not necessarily) using Python? I could try to teach him Python myself, but I'm afraid I would just frustrate him and kill his interest in programming. I did a Google search and found a few things, but not a lot.

The LiveWires Python Course, http://www.livewires.org.uk/python/home is aimed at your son's age-group. There are several worksheets that involve building games using a simple veneer over pygame, if you need to entice him with something! -- Rhodri James *-* Wildebeeste Herder to the Masses -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
