I’m thinking of starting a local group for kids (8-12 yo) to learn programming using Scratch.

Do you have any pointers that I might consider?

For reference, I’m a senior developer and architect, the programming part will probably be the easiest of it all.

    Scratch is great but make sure to let them know that they can see the actual code that runs underneath the drag-drop UI.

    I can also recommend hourofcode.com where there are a ton of good tutorials ranging from scratch-level coding in a game setup (e.g. minecraft) to actual coding in python.
