I asked my son what he did at school today. In coding he learned how to create a game in Scratch. He's in Year 4. He's looking forward to being in Year 5 because then he can go to their after school programming club. |

Really, it comes down to whatever sparks his interest - if he's interested in programming a videogame then you could do worse than point him to Unity, if what he really wants is to know what goes on under the bonnet of a computer/OS then yeah a Pi would be a good choice. Picking the right tutorials/learning materials will probably be a bigger issue, to be honest - if you get him a book on x86 assembly he'll probably be put off for life. |

Do it. He and his contemporaries will be the only thing preventing a T-800 crushing your ever greying head under its iron boot. |

That question is rather like 'what can I do with a screwdriver?' |

Might as well post here rather than starting a new thread. I'm thinking about getting my nephew a Raspberry Pi, what's the best newbie kit to go for? |

What's he already got? Access to his own HDMI TV? Spare keyboard and mouse lying around? Someone to write Micro SD cards? |

I might suggest a Micro:bit (v2 if you can) or two, instead of a pi? |
