I think this is a super cool idea. I have been thinking how to introduce my children to a computer for some time now.
They are both also very young - 3 and 5 and currently have very limited interaction with screens.
No tablets/console/PCs at all and TVs only during the weekend for 2-3 hours.
I love the fact that their favorite games are LEGO and board games and I'm concerned that introducing a PC to their life will immediately take over everything else.
I want them to be familiar with other STEM based "toys" before they put their hands on a PC - A couple of days ago I ordered a microscope from Amazon (the expensive kind that is able to view individual cells) and we are going to prepare slides from samples that we'll take from a nearby pond.
At the end of the day, I want them to develop curiousity and fascination towards nature and science. I still haven't figured out completely how to do it with PCs/tablets without getting down a slippery slope
