What could be the best way to introduce the world of computers to a kid, let’s say of 6 years old, so that he learns to handle it like a toy and stops dreading it like some esoteric, arcane and recondite machine from some eldritch, enigmatic, cryptic and phantasmal world ?

    Games might be a place to start, but a kid will think “tablet is easier”.

    If you play RTS games it’s really hard to do it without mouse and keyboard, so that’s a point for a desktop or laptop
