I made a pygame framework a few years ago with a similar goal:
http://www.nongnu.org/pygsear/

There is a book linked from that page that goes through
writing pong and frogger using the framework.


Recently I have moved away from Pygame to PyQt.

I am working on updating Start Programming to video:

Once students have some experience, they could try Pybotwar:
