The lego remote control car kits are pretty cool for learning
programming. You build the car, then hook it up to a computer. On the
computer you build a little program to control it, ie. when it hits an
object it will go backwards one foot, turn clockwise 90 degrees, and go
forward in another direction. Programs can include if/else statements
and for/while loops. Then disconnect it from the computer and watch it
go.
