I think you should be a little clearer about the making of instances. Making a class then making an instance from it is a jump for a beginner. Make some comment about a class being both a "container" that contains related stuff (as you did quite well) and also the class can be used as a template (cookie cutter) that can make a bunch of identical objects.

That's a good point. The analogy I'm thinking about is automobiles. The people at the factory have all the designs/blueprints for the car, but you can't drive a blueprint. You need to build actual instances of the plans to be able to do anything. And you can build multiple instances of a car from the same plans, all initially identical.

Or something like that...
