Is it easier to teach your kids about computers with a Framework laptop? (lemmy.ca)

I've been surprised at how hands-on disassembly makes my daughter understand computers better. The fact that she can pull out the memory or SDD, or point to the giant battery, or ask what's under the fan seems to have made her much more curious and interested in learning about computers.

Has anyone else had a teaching moment through being able to open up their laptop easily?

It always helps for kids to see how things are built/work. Curiosity is piqued, thought process goes beyond surface level use of items. My niece at about 9 was building cad data and running a 3d printer for the parts she designed--engineer in the making

Oooh, this is awesome. Way to provide the resources and let the kid smarts loose.
