I'm looking for ideas for "games"/contests/competitions to use in teaching programming skills to young kids. Ideally, things that can be mapped onto animatronic devices (for more of a "spectator sport" to drum up enthusiasm and pride). The goal won't be to teach *a* programming language but, rather, to teach the design of algorithms and reifying those in some <arbitrary> language (including /ad hoc/ languages).
