My son (13) only gets interested when I hack something quick, simple, AND fun!
Last thing we hack was connecting a raspberry running espeak so we can send audible texts to each other around the house.. by the end, he was really hooked with the project, but at the start he really didn't care.
I learned to teach him without pushing him. I usually start working on the thing myself, and during the project he will show interest, but never worked the other way around.
He shows interest for other things, like maths, game theory, and books.. specially books! so I think we are from a different breed of hackers, and not all of us learn the same way.
Try to find what's you child's learning type, and what are the things that motivates and are fun to him
