Holy cool batman! This program (which works on Windows, OS X, and Linux) is free, and allows kids of almost all ages to visually create graphical programs, including motion, logic, loops, sensors, etc. I've just 'scratched' the surface (pun intended... lol) - but it seems to have many cool features, and the upcoming 2.0 release is even better from the looks of it.

Definitely an eye opener...
