This summer I led a web site design camp for four 12-13 year old boys. We dabbled with HTML, PHP and MySQL to create a web site for reviewing video games.

I spent the last week of last summer teaching HTML to three 10 year olds. The biggest problem was keeping up with them. Here's their work:

• Alex's pages
• Daniel's pages
• Elliot's pages

And here's my reward.
