I would totally support that! My daughter started working with CAD and printing things at age 6 (7 now). She's getting an early start in industrial design and who knows how that could pay off in her future.

I see the 3d printing market being a lot like the PC market in the 70s/early 80s. It's a very exciting time and those who are getting started in it early will have a head start for the future just like I did when I learned to code way back when on my C64.
