The turtle graphics concept is often used as a basic teaching tool. Logo, Scratch, etc. It seems easy to understand for children, and is a good way to get started. I have some additional questions to that, though: How long before children get tired (bored) with the concept? How would one move on from Turtle graphics? What other concepts or paradigms might also be used? Are there other different approaches that might work equally well (or better)? Any personal ideas/suggestions?
