"Learn to Program BASIC" by Interplay!! What a RIDICULOUS game/IDE to teach kids with. But it's kind of amazing how useful (and deeply-ingrained) a lot of those concepts were/are for me.

And also, WHOA this video--literally jump to ANY point, omg: youtube.com/watch?v=uBYz9syhNAA

I don't remember what year I got this, but I was probably about 10 years old? My brother and I used to make text RPGs in them--and that's still what I do when learning a new language, lol.
