A great introduction to programming, RobotProg puts you in command of a small robot with goals to achieve.

The robot is controlled using a flowchart including the ability to perform different commands depending on what the robot can see. It is very simple to learn as the flowchart is created by dragging and dropping commands onto a page. Once you have finished the program checks that the flowchart has been written correctly and points out any mistakes. When this is done you can run the program and see if the robot does the right thing.
