Did you look here:

The benefit of the pi over IBM-compatible is that (IMHO) the assembler 
is much easier to learn and use.

I think if children could see their simple first creations running on 
their smartphone or tablet that would encourage them a lot. However you 
need a massive chunk of experience and knowledge to even *install* the 
Android SDK, let alone start writing a new app.
