I'll look into that! Most of the technology in this post is from before my time, but I wonder what it's like for today's kids that are growing up on touch screens and smart phones.

There was a big period where "computer" lessons at schools were around teaching word processing and slide presentations, but with things like Scratch, the Raspberry Pi and even Swift, I hope more kids are getting into making their computers/tablets/phones do stuff :)
A bunch of friends kids got into programming through Minecraft and Roblox too!
Learning how to use Microsoft Office was basically the main topic of computer classes when I was in school in the 90s and 00s. Roblox crossed my mind too and I think you're right about the younger generation! The ones who are curious about how technology works have so many new ways to learn.
