Coding Adventures Ages 8-12 Beginner

Block Coding Adventure

The friendliest possible start to programming. Drag and snap blocks to command a robot through maze puzzles, and along the way absorb the three big ideas behind every program ever written: sequences, loops and conditionals. Each lesson is a game with levels, a guide character named Neby, and celebrations when you win. By the end you will think like a programmer — before ever typing a line of code.
