Squeak for kids - eToys, Scratch, Alice ?

What are the options to get kids (7-10) using Squeak? I have see eToys,
Scratch, Alice. Are there others?

Any recommendations on which to choose? I want something that they can start
with easily, but that will grow with them at least for a while.

Thanks.

Thanks Stef. We are already using BotsInc and liked it a lot!

I am looking to move towards building things with richer models and hoping
(ideally :-) it can be done with a kid-friendly toolkit with less
syntax-level typing & debugging.

Ideas in the Classroom"? You should definitely take a gander at it. It
has a great base for easy script building, especially for graphical objects.
