Yes, I would be very interested, given I've just started teaching Ruby to my 7 year old son. </div><div>I'm using KidsRuby and so far it's been both difficult and fun.</div>

<span><div><div>Hi there, Would somebody be interested in a talk about teaching programming to children?<div><br></div><div>Around April this year, I volunteered (or rather my company, New Bamboo, volunteered my time) to help out at a "Coding club" pilot.

<div><br></div><div>For some time, I have had an interest in teaching. This Coding Club allowed me to actually dabble a bit in the field, and I learned a few things that others may be interested in. If you have similar interests (maybe for your own little ones?), or simply are interested on how programming may look to complete newcomers, you may like this.</div>
<div><br></div><div>To make it even less Ruby-related, this actually was done in Python :P I could actually convert it to Ruby, but I'm not sure whether it would actually make sense (for reasons I can also explain).<div>
