My nephew asked me to help him build a simple game in Scratch last weekend.

He's 10, and after about an hour of dragging blocks around, he looked up and said, 'It's like giving the computer a list of things to do, but you have to be really specific.' We were just at my kitchen table. Has anyone else had a moment where a kid explained a coding concept in a way that just clicked?

Kids often explain tech better than the manuals.
