Yes, I'm sure we're not the only people who thought that rubyk mean
something Ruby-related.
The problem with introducing programming is that 'hello, world' just
doesn't cut it anymore.
Kids [1] are used to much more, and having a rich integrated [2]
multimedia kit available will make them learn Lua with pleasure.
You also mentioned OpenCV? That would also be a fantastic thing to
throw into the mix, given that every kid has a webcam.

[2] yes, all the parts are there, but man it's hard to get them to work together
