Exactly. And there are lots of things that are more important than learning how to code at ages 6, and before (and, heck, after). How about exposure to different (human) languages? Appreciating and creating art. The scientific process, and evaluating hypotheses. Reading. Cooking. Fire safety. So many things! I've used Scratch, through volunteering in the engineering department at my local science museum. It's okay, although I'm not convinced it will turn 6 year olds into brilliant programmers later in life, any more than "creating things" in any other context would. I don't know. I'm divided. Sentiments like "I'm teaching my <very young child> to code and you should too" leave a bad taste in my mouth, though.
