I'm using FlowCode 4 for PIC from MatrixMultimedia.
It is good for the beginner.

Google for PicAxe too.
They can be programmed directly from the serial port, without any
physical programmer.
Also, their FlowCart is free,

You can do simple programs, for the beginning, using intuitive flow charts .
For more sophisticated ones you have to learn programming in Basic or C.
