Hi,

My 10-year old and a friend want to write a computer game dealing with
baseball, for a special school project.  They are bright and patient,
but have no computer experience (Dad does, and is willing to tutor).
Any ideas on what language or tools they (I) might investigate using?
We have a Mac and the school has Apple IIe's, so it would be ideal if
the language/tools were available on both platforms.

E-mail me, or post.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.
