Kid Friendly Coding

When you think about coding or programming, what comes to mind is the cliché IT geek who never leaves his gadgets. But, today, learning how to code has become a skill that kids and adults alike should study. Kids, contrary to popular belief, can learn and comprehend complex concepts explained in a kid-friendly way.

Your little one will likely not care about writing data processing algorithms, but they will have fun creating games, designing websites, programming music, or just playing around with code. They don’t have to be a “techie” or exceptional at maths to learn. Also, kids don’t know how complicated coding is “supposed” to be, and thus, often learn faster than adults.

So, what exactly is coding and programming? And, at what age can you start teaching your child to code?
