It may be worth having a look at Great Cow BASIC, It can program most if

not all the PIC 10/12/16/18 Devices as well as some AVR Devices, has a nice

IDE that is easy to use and generates more efficient code than XC8 in my

limited experience. It also has a graphical programming tool specifically

for kids and a decent text compiler / Assembler for more mainstream

applications. Free and Opensource. I am seriously considering it as a

teaching tool for all skill levels as well as having developed a couple of

simple applications with it (An alarm System for my apartment and an

automated test rig for a PIC32 Based production board)

Here are some links to have a look at:
