Rex,
We have used Finch with a variety of age groups. From the adorable
4-year old Norman, right through to a workshop with other educators.
There is a lot of good material available on the Finch Dreams website:
http://www.finchrobot.com/software/finch-dreams
We have mostly used Finch as part of an Alice course, or just a way to
keep Norman busy while the rest of the kids in the one-room school were
doing other work.
