==Chatbot Terminal==
I think it would be very valuable for children to have a terminal emulator that they could have a conversation with, but also one that can teach some useful linux commands. 
Some examples:
$Hello
#Hi, how are you
$what is the weather like?
#inside a computer it can be as hot as 150 degrees, but it's only a mild 110 degrees today.  How about where you are?
$how do I find a file on my computer?
#well, there is a command called 'find' which you can use to find a file by name.  try find / test.txt
etc.
The challenge that I face is that the terminal is intimidating in comparison to IOS.  I think a specialized conversation bot could do wonders for making children more comfortable in the CLI
