Welcome to the helloneo.ca website.

This is a wiki in which I record the way in which I taught programming to my son, Neo, since he was eight years old. He's much older now, and I have updated these lessons as I continue to teach programming to kids. Although the primary purpose is to keep a record of my lessons, you are also welcome to read them.
