Coding for Kids
Looking for a fun coding activity, for your kids or classroom? Try out our spooooky new tutorial called Costume Party, available for free for a limited time.
Get creative and make your own digital costume for Halloween. Use Tynker’s AI blocks and make something totally special — and totally you. This tutorial requires a webcam.
Maybe you’ll become a cute kitty cat…. Or a proud Viking? Or even a scary zombie!
Try putting your own spin on things! Design your own costume, then write code that makes it follow your face exactly, even matching your size and angle, on the fly. What kind of AI magic is happening behind the scenes? Explore how Tynker’s AI blocks make amazing effects possible.
