ZOMG, programming for kids.
Scratch is a new programming language that makes it easy to create your own interactive stories, animations, games, music, and art -- and share your creations on the web.

For Eiwe: Last fall,
AskMetafilter had a thread entirely dedicated to

LifeHacker post in which I found the link.
For Matt: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOMORROW! Because we love you, we did NOT order you a
banana cell phone cover. Instead, you will receive something much more fruity next week, well after your birthday. You knew we were time disabled, right? Yeah. Sorry. But HEY! Happy birthday! And no banana cell phone cover!

Ok, I have to get up and finish cleaning now. My sister and Steve are on their way and I've not yet cleaned the bathrooms.
