My son (age 12) is wanting to learn more about coding. Do any of you know of any good websites with tutorials, videos, etc. that would be worthwhile without talking too much over his head? Would Khan Academy be a good start? Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

This and pretty much only this.
You could also send him off to some pretty bad *** camps for a week or two.
They are built to super-excellerate you in a very focused environment.
Yep, codeacademy is the way to go. I started using it and then my daughter who is 12 started coding as well. It's pretty easy to use but there are times where you might want to watch him work just to make sure he understands all the directions they are giving. There have only been a few lessons I had to review with her. It's actually a pretty fun hobby for a kid that seems to do nothing but play sports all the time.
You should direct him to this link. Shouldn't take long for him to master it.
