I would work through a concrete example, with screenshots.
Have a look at: http://www.pixelbeat.org/talks/pygtk
You may get ideas from other tutorials here:

Pádraig.

Somesh,

I've been meaning to start a small simple collection of documents that
teaches the basics of python to younger (age 7-12) children. I have
two kids who aren't yet old enough to read properly (although they've
made a start) but I want to get some basic docs ready for when they're
ready to start.

I've looked around at other docs, but I don't think that they are great
for ordinary kids of this age (but I'm sure some will get something out
of it). The docs I want to produce will run in small chunks but with
quick resultsi, heavy on screenshots (where applicable) and have a
younger look and feel about them than some of the official documents.
All the documents should also be supported by face-to-face interaction
(like a day programming with dad!)

I notice that your documents are specific to gui creation and glade,
and I'm not sure how old your brother is, but do you want to collaborate
on this? Anyone else think this might be worth while distributing?

Adam

hello,
I would certainly want to collaborate on writing Python tutorial for
kids (I've got a small kids myself (7, 5, 3)). I already wrote some
tutorials that make heavy use of screenshots (serpia.com) but they are
for big kids like us
Please contact me, maybe we can work something out. I'd be more than
happy to host the tutorials *and* help you with writing them.

bye,
Dimtiri

Not to make light of your tutorial but it can use some editing (the
English grammar and spelling is below par). I understand that most
likely English is not your first language. Given that, I think you did
a great job. If you like, email me back and I'll be glad to help out
with that, but I can only do it if I can get my hands on the source of
your docs (not sure if you're using some type of doc tool -- it does
appear that way).

I must say, I thought your tutorial was very good. I despise RAD tools
but you almost had me convinced to give PyGTK and Glade a shot

Regards,

Harlin
