Nice to see it being posted on HN<p>I started logging almost everything I teach my daughter, she is 12 now, and is starting to enjoy programming, now she can comfortably write small programs to help her with her life (e.g. popquiz program, or area calculation program). She is also very comfortable with the command line and navigating the file system.<p>I dont teach her in order to become a programmer, but rather to be able to modify the world around her.<p>To be able to break down things and make them in the way she wants.<p>I am writing this log so other parents like me can get some ideas about programs or topics or projects they can do with their kids.
