Scratch is great.  Its been very successful for me in introducing my
daughter to programming.

I don't see much possible interaction with Sage, since Scratch is
written in Squeak, and it has a custom (although quite permissive)
license.  It might provide some inspiration for making some sort of
visual programming interface in the notebook though, perhaps as some
sort of extension of @interacts.  Besides the educational aspect, such
an interface could be very useful to a variety of people such as
modelers (I know a lot of biologists and some engineers who heavily
use such things) or perhaps even in a business environment.
