I am not really actively teaching them, but I am providing some resources like books. My older son (8) enjoys playing around with Scratch. I think it's great and at this age it's just good to experiment.

And this one for Python: https://www.amazon.com/Python-Kids-Playful-Introduction-Programming/dp/1593274076 https://www.amazon.com/Python-Kids-Playful-Introduction-Prog...

Excellent. I am also encouraging 7 years old kid to play around with Scratch. He seems to enjoy the block coding. It actually started to make sense for him. He know knows when to use loops and why to use them. The only problem is that he ran out of projects or ideas to implement in scratch. So, I bought him Minecraft Education Edition, which actually have support for Block Coding to more a robot around.
