Flipnotes, Scratch or Adobe Flash?

Post Reply New Topic

Anyone play/use/program these? My 10 yo son is on Flipnotes constantly. He already mastered Scratch, so he doesn't use that often. Now he is learning Adobe Flash, but learning it is a bit too slow moving to keep his interest.

If you are familiar w/ the above games/programs, what could you recommend for him that is similar and might keep his interesting and just challenging enough?

Thanks.

Unless he is eager to learn Actionscript in Flash, give a try to these programs similar to Scratch:

btw, Flash is easier and less annoying for basic use if he learns about "behaviors". (there's also a new program called Adobe Catalyst but it's mainly aimed for designers, which I doubt is what you might want).
