Somehow I don't think that HiperSockets will be as exciting to them as they were to me when I first heard about them.
Kids are excited by big words like "hipersockets". How do you explain such a technical occupation to young children? What props or visual aids would you use to illustrate work that mostly goes on inside either our brains or our computers? What works with my 8-year old son is tying together the computing ideas that make his Playstation II play his video games. It also helped me my showing him things on the PC, as he loves playing games on websites such as cartoonetwork.com I dont think trying to explain mainframe stuff would work.
