I have a nine year old wanting to start creating games on a website.
I've only dabbled in websites and haven't looked at game programming in
years.  Any ideas on where to start?

My 10 year old son is independently and without prompting asking dad to
teach him how to program a computer.  :)

It appears that he has decided that what dad does is pretty cool.

Anyway, I think I will look at this with Robbie.  I think I will also
start teaching him Access. 
IMHO, Access is a pretty easy to use programming environment, with the
debug window to just execute code, buttons to press to cause code to
run, and text boxes (unbound) to enter data in for things like a simple
"add two numbers" first project.

Does anyone want to share "teaching the kids" stories?
