Can you say more about why this is? Is it the pictures?
Yes, I scroll down the page and I see pictures and a simple picture language, and it seems to be using them to introduce some pretty simple and familiar concepts, so I assume it's for children.
How does it compare to one of these tutorials for Processing: http://processing.org/tutorials/ ?
Processing is considerably cooler, in a hipster-designer way, than Racket. Processing has street cred before people ever see a tutorial. Cool kids start from a very different position than us nerds, and even if they shouted, "Look at my circles, pledge dog, look at them!", people would lap it up. And the Processing circles probably would be cool circles.
