Are your kids spending a lot of time on the computer this summer?

Happy Summer Everyone! 

I don't normally blog during the summer holidays but I read a great article today that I thought would be interesting for kids at home during the school break.  Instead of them simply playing computer games all day long, they can now learn a new skill and have fun while doing it. 
  
"Tynker" is a new computer program that kids can use to learn how to create code at home.  It uses a "visual" programming language (making it far more user-friendly for kids) and looks way less scary than typical computer languages such as "JavaScript".
