How Do You Explain Software Development To 2nd Graders?
First time accepted submitter zimania writes "Being the start of the school year, my kids' teachers invariably ask if any parents have any special skills that they can present to the students. As a software engineer, I'd like to give a presentation to the classes about developing software. The tricky part is making a presentation fun, inspirational, easy enough for 2nd and 4th graders to grasp. Has anybody been brave enough to attempted such a thing?
