Last night, I introduced my kid to programming. We'd done some stuff with Mindstorms before, but she never really caught the bug for it. But for some reason, last night when I showed her some simple Python scripting to solve math problems and write to the console, she was enthralled.
After guiding her through a few things, she took the laptop off for a while and then came back with her first program, giggling like a maniac

Code:
    you='WOW!!!'
    fart='So many poops!'
    print(you,fart)
I'm pretty proud
