Coding for Kids
Celebrate and create with code! Holidays are wonderful occasions for encouraging kids to create. From homemade greeting cards to Halloween costumes, kids who learn to create at a young age will more likely become lifelong makers instead of passive consumers.
Check out the Halloween games kids have created using Tynker — kids who have participated in our introductory programming camps, classes and online courses. When kids create games they are introduced to the logic of programming and the planning required to bring an idea to life.
