Good point. I use Python3 with PyQt without issue, but it could be a matter of complexity. PySide I kind of walked away from due to the lack of Qt5 support.

I've taught a few classes to young kids using Scratch, and they absolutely loved it. Those who found programming to be less interesting than they'd hoped still find Scratch useful for art and story telling. Sadly, version 2 of Scratch requires Adobe Air for local installs (and local installs are often useful to schools with no or heavily restricted internet access), but luckily version 3 (at least, according to beta) is set to use javascript.
