Had an interesting session with my son today. Played around in the scripting world for over an hour - I think that's the longest he's ever sat still at the computer.
He loves the car, but steering is pretty hopeless (I can't get the hang of it either :). He liked it when I changed the colors. Usually he wants to do things himself, but I think he realized changing colors was too finicky for him. The color picker is pretty though. It would be nice to see more like this.
Have you tried "gearing down" the stearing wheel: dividing the amount in the "turn by" command by 3 (or so) ? It makes it much easier. :)
Overall, thanks for sharing your experiences -- I've found them an interesting read!
