I've been meaning to do this for a while now but this past week I finally got around to starting the nand2tetris course, this time with my 2 kids
I bought the book a few years ago, but I found out recently that they've added a free course on Coursera that seems to have all the same materials: https://www.coursera.org/learn/build-a-computer/
