I don't see why not, to be honest. Not a lot of difference between his
11yo son and my 12yo sister, and I just pointed her at the tutorial
and Idle's interactive mode and set her going. But the father is the
best one to judge that; if the boys have dabbled in programming
already, he and/or they will know if the tutorial's aimed too high for
them.
