Hey, and they got to learn awk and sed sometime... ;-P Something like Linux Mint would do nicely, I think. (let the distro flamewars begin!)

Both my kids use Linux at home, each with their own account. I've got 5th and 2nd graders. They're both addicted to Minecraft right now, along with some other games. They also get to use the 'kids' account on my wife's Windows 7 box, but that account is pretty locked down without any privs to install anything. Heck, the Wife's account is locked down too, just to keep virii more at bay. Kids are adaptable, so Linux makes perfect sense.
