Any experience with teaching kids Linux? - Lemmy

Any one here has any experience with teaching 8 to 12 years old kids Linux?

When I was 12 I got “tricked” into installing Linux Mint from a USB drive because another kid told me it had Garageband on it.

Like that meme where you give someone a bunch of adderall and a pickaxe and tell them there’s gold under a location you need excavated.

Perhaps you could explore adjacent strategies?

May be not a bad idea.

His screen time is currently limited and he’s been asking me to remove the limit. Guess I can let him dual boot into Mint without any screen time limit so that he can play around.
