My daughter has learned to use a computer from very early age, mostly playing educational games. At first we did everything for her, later we let her
figure things out for herself.
I remember one day I was making dinner in the kitchen while she was sitting at the computer messing around with it, she was trying start her game by
herself and I had just explained that she had to click the desktop icon with the penguin on, which was located at the top of the screen.
At one point she yells at me that she couldn't get the 'arrow thingy' to the penguin and I yelled back from the kitchen that she had to move the mouse
'up'.
After a few moments again she yells that it wasn't working, when I went to see what she was doing...
she was sitting there with her hand in the air clicking the mousebuttons.
ironically, a few years later my kid was trying to teach grandma how to use a computer and grandma did the exact same thing
