I've been teaching after school programs and community classes through our university for a couple years on and off. I've been using the CS-First curriculum from Google. It uses Scratch as the programming environment (a visual environment from MIT). Overall, I like the CS-First curriculum a lot–though some of the themes are better than others (some lean towards animation/storytelling and are light on actual programming topics). In my workshops I almost always inject some of my own lectures and exercises with the kids. Biggest issue I've run into is with Scratch being Flash-based. I'm starting to see browser issues more often (especially in a tightly controlled university lab). This could be a big issue for you if you're teaching kids remotely. One new thing I'm looking forward to trying with a class soon is Hopscotch. It's a scratch-like visual programming environment for iOS. I've tested it on my own kids and they love it. Plus they put out a ton of useful videos and tutorials.
