Hopscotch is a brand new iPad app that teaches kids coding. It allows them to create an interactive program on the iPad by dragging blocks of code and dropping them into a scripting area. No typing required. Beautifully designed! This makes me so happy! Can’t wait to try this with my daughter tonight!
Holy cow. Cannot wait to give this a go!

No iPad app, but MIT, UC Berkeley and others have been doing a lot of great work on this front with Scratch:
