Rather similar. When they where realy young we introduced them to First Lego League ( http://www.firstlegoleague.org/ ), created a team of 6-12 yo's, organized crafting and experimentation sessions teaching them about programming and engineering in general. But as they get older, the barrage of entertainment online, games, YouTube etc. just steamrolls across them.
Like many parents you start the endless grind of 'limiting computer time' to stop them turning into complete addicts (like most of their peers), but it is a relentless uphill battle.
