Hello, I have a 7yo daughter currently in 1st grade (Germany) and she was given a password for the school computer. Having never touched a computer before she is now being introduced to typing and the mouse.
I wonder if anyone has any experience with the following: 1. Is it useful for a child this age to get introduced to programming if they are not actively looking to learn? 2. Is racket a good way to introduce it? 3. Is 7yo / 1st grade a good time or too early and I should wait? Of course, I can say, look... those math exercises you have? (16 - 2 = _, 10 + 18 = _, etc) You can check your answers with a computer, you have to type (- 16 2), (+ 10 18), etc. But is it useful or a waste of mine and her time and there's a better way to begin?
