Confused on how to make an iPhone App

Ok.. I have looked around and I am a bit confused on how to make a iPhone App. We saw this app on CNET showing how kids can use the software in a class to make an app so my son wanted to try. I develop for a living so I downloaded the app and I understand how to get a basic game working.
So question is if I just want to get it onto my own iTouch or iPad can I do this or do I need a full developer license if I am not planing on uploading it to the store (Now). Based on the CNET story I was expecting a button/menu option that generated the binary that I can just drag into my iTunes. Is there a link on this process as I am having a hard time finding one.
