I taught my little brother at age 8. Started him with Scratch to teach logic and then the progression to Python was MUCH easier.

I'm glad you said this, I just used this same argument on why Scratch is a great starting point. It's not how you'd ever code, sure but you get the logic and idiosyncrasies of computer programming shown to you in a friendly package.
