My husband was intrigued when he saw this at the IHM conference this weekend because our son wants to learn programming eventually and Husband thinks he needs a good foundation in logic first.

Can anyone tell me about it? Age range, personal experience using it. Thanks!

We also used the Memoria Press logic books. My ds started in the 8th grade, my dd in the 7th grade. We really loved the program.

I'm interested in this,too. Is this parent friendly? Has anyone used the DVD's? Would it be as easy to use for the logically impared as Latina Christiana is for parents learning Latin along with the kids?
