Computer Coding/Programming for children.

[Case]

Back in the day, early 80's, I had a Sinclair zx 80 (then 81). At the time, there were magazines you could buy where you could copy and write code in a language called zx-basic (I think) where you could create simple games.

 

A little later in life, I was involved in writing a game called 'Surf Champ' for the Spectrum. Sold a few copies, was innovative for its time (but actually crap)

My son is now 8, and he has very little interest in playing computer games, but he's constantly asking if he can make one.

 

I'm way out if the loop these days, and while I will Bing and see what I can find, can anyone recommend any appropriate resources / websites my lad and I can access?

 

Thanks, etc.
