Steve - Re: "Do you believe it's worth it to teach C first? (before teaching C++). Also might you not just skip c++ and move straight to Java by that time?" Possibly. However, it is important to teach progamming concepts. The understanding of these concepts is paramount. The implimentation - C, C++, Java, or whatever - then becomes "mechanical". Thus, the underlying principles are what I try to teach my son. Admittedly, starting off with Delphi 3 hides a lot of the inner details, but it gets across the basic principles. And, generating Windows programs right from the start keeps the learning experience interesting - for a 9 year old. Paul
