I started with BASIC and it was super cool to write our own programs and show off. Languages like BASIC are rarely taught in schools now. But everyone has to start somewhere. I feel Small Basic will be a good beginning and show them the beauty of programming. It will be a good start for children and make them start loving programming. @Taylor I agree completely.

I started programming when I was around 10 to 11 years old. My frist language that I got started in was actually HTML and then I moved up from there... HTML>CSS>Batch>Javascript>C#>Asp.net I believe that if we introduce our kids into programming with a language that can't truly do much of what we/anyone would need in the real word like database management and stuff, then they will get use to programming for a useless cause. And when they get older they will not be able to take in that they have to actually work hard for what they want. No offense but I live in America and damn... they are a lot of fat people and kids here. They all are always poor for some reason to. You see our youth of today do not understand what it means to actually do work. I mean there are always the few exceptions but still. Even though this sounds like a good idea for kids.
