Certainly kids are good at picking things up! In fact, they do pick up Chromebooks - but it is a painful experience for the early education groups I'm talking about (K-2) because they often don't read well enough yet. (I'm in public school.) And knowing letters really helps keyboarding. Part of what I'm trying to contest is this elitism of laptop over tablet. My kids can do group activities with a tablet - carry it with them to the carpet, draw things, pass them back and forth, create things with gestures, film each other. The form factor is amazing. And, yeah, then they can learn laptops in third or fourth grade - isn't that feasible? I'm definitely glad you played Treasure Mountain! when you were a kid. Thankyou for the comment!
