macOS Kid's programming

Many years ago, I came across a graphical development language for kids that allowed them to develop their own *games* by moving things around and then tweaking the code that was recorded.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?? Or has the oldtimers disease taken hold of my brain again.

My 10 yo grand-daughter asked if I could *teach* her how to make her own computer games Since my mind is willing, but weak in this area, and there's nobody else around to help her along this road, I thought this long ago app might get her moving - but I have no idea where I found it or even what to look for.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the heads up about Python - I'll look into that - I've been looking for a challenge for myself as well and that just might be the ticket.

I checked out some implementations of Logo, but most of the better ones are strictly for institutional use and not available to the public or are rather pricey and since Hannah's interest tends to be fleeting, I'll try to get her attention focussed in some other way.

I've just pried my laptop out of the sweaty little hands of her brother who's spent the last 5 hours assaulting me with his Garageband creations so maybe that will grab her interest as well.

Take care, Margaret
