Tynker

Tynker is a very easy way for children to learn programming. Solve puzzles to learn concepts, easily build your own games, and control robots and drones using our new step-by-step coding tutorials. 50+ free starter templates included for games, apps, drawing, music, physics, and more. Additional puzzle levels available as in-app purchases.

 

Tynker (www.tynker.com) inspires kids to create and collaborate through programming in a visual, intuitive and imaginative way. More than 30,000 schools and 26 million kids have started coding with Tynker, building critical computational thinking skills for future success.

Tynker is inspired by visual programming languages such as Scratch from MIT, Alice from CMU, and other programming languages like Logo, SmallTalk, and Squeak.

 

All Tynker courses teach critical 21st century skills, including programming and computational thinking. Students learn how to logically sequence events, create playable games, tell a good story, and model real situations. They also learn computational hinking by developing algorithmic and design thinking abilities. After learning the fundamentals, kids can transition to Javascript within the Tynker learning system.

 

In my opinion it is the best way for kids to begin to learn programming. I really recommend it!
