sshsearching: thanks for the links. I will check them out.
Dazed: I ordered the online kit I mentioned before. Should arrive next week. I will share findings here shortly.
Also, regarding Scratch, I found out that MIT Lab who designed Scratch was also at the source of the Lego Mindstorms and WeDo development, hence the similar look-and-feel of the interface.
Scratch v1.4 even supports the sensors from the Lego WeDo system for improved interaction!!!
I'll probably get a WeDo set for my daughter's birthday next year... I am also thinking of stating a Junior Lego League team in her school, so by paying $25 registration, you get 20% off the WeDo set or the Engineering base set. Might be worth it regardless if I move on with the idea...
