I have 2 boys, 8 and 11 yo. i haven´t started yet with coding - even though i often thought about buying some of these toys where you configure the movements with coding.. Our tech approach with them is getting them involved in many things we do that are somehow tech related.
Using word-execel-powerpoint for the projects at school, photo editing and composition for our travel photobook, very simple video editing for short movies and stop motion ( with lego or playmobil or playdough).
A few times i played with them with Scratch and i was with the bigger one at a Scratch Meetup/Dojo.

It is not yet very structured but we try to do lots of things that make fun and let us be together.

( actually i need to finish a post about all this, which i have in draft since months..)
