The first event in this theme is the [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Webmakers/events/kitchen_table hackasaurus kitchen table] ''(read this guide)'' event scheduled for the summer 2012. Over the next month they are running a beta of this event and have made a call out for testers. I have volunteered. My plan is to work with my two sons (Lucas and Kai, 6 and 5 years old) for half a day or more hacking the web... One thing I have learned in teaching kids and parents technology and hacking is you can't prepare enough. Parents often have fear and lack confidence in their tech skills and the kids just want to run free and build, build, build... managing this takes solid scaffolding. I am going to follow what has been provided on the [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Webmakers/events/kitchen_table Mozilla page] and also use the following scaffolding and encourage other parents to use or alter this if they would like more detailed scaffolding. | The first event in this theme is the [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Webmakers/events/kitchen_table hackasaurus kitchen table] '''(<-read this guide)''' event scheduled for the summer 2012.
