For younger children, there is a set of really clever physical / digitally-assited games from Osmo [1] which include a coding-based game. They work by redirecting an iPad's camera with a mirror, thus allowing interaction between physical objects in front of the iPad (such as drawings and small plastic chips) and the software.
In the coding game, you get a set of magnetic command bricks (walk, jump, grab) with modifiers (number for length, direction) as well as a loop meta-brick.
It works amazingly well and teaches a lot of elementary reasoning skills to younger children.
[edit] I should have mentioned: I have two girls and they both like it, so that's my N=2 positive experience.
