Any parents / teachers that can recommend a mission for two children 11 and 9 years old? I'm going to teach them the basics of building and launching and orbiting/navigation, and I'll show them how to do a Mun landing. After that, I want to give them a more challenging mission ... I told them that if they succeed on the more challenging mission, as a reward I'll take them over to the east coast of Florida to watch a rocket launch.
The goal is for them to have fun while learning about rocketry. The mission has to be challenging, but age appropriate and not too difficult. I'm a friend of the family, and have more of an honorary uncle role than a parent, so I'm not familiar with the learning capabilities of that age group. I'm hoping that some parents here can give me some good ideas. Should it be landing on a more challenging planet like Eve? Simple rendezvous in Kerbal orbit? Please feel free to include any thoughts on using cheats like unlimited fuel.
Thanks in advance for any help!
