Hi everybody!
I would like to share with you my last crazy project...
I think it's a pity that our kids don't have the luck we had when we were kids and could write programs in a easy way with our humble computers.
That's the main reason I have decided to write my own programming language for kids:
TinyDev - Programming language for kids.
TinyDev is a programming language for kids, created with the aim that they could learn to solve problems.
With TinyDev, the kids can draw, write text, move images on the screen, play sounds and interact with their programs with the keyboard and the mouse.
It has its own IDE (Integrated Development Environment), in order to create, edit and execute their own programs, as in profesional programming languages.
Free download!

Edit: I forgot to mention that the IDE speaks both Spanish and English! If you want to teach TinyDev to speak another language, just send me a message and I will give you some work!
That's nice !
BTW: there is also

and - of course - give them a CPC :)
Yup, giving them a CPC and a box of tapes was my idea too :D
