This program introduces kids to coding using Scratch, a block-based, intuitive language. Participants will learn about important programming concepts while designing fun and interactive projects.

Some of the coding challenges in this program include:

Creating an interactive story!
Fun with video sensing!
Creating a Maze Game!

Scratch is a programming language and an online community where children can program and share interactive media such as stories, games, and animation with people from all over the world. As children create with Scratch, they learn to think creatively, work collaboratively, and reason systematically. Scratch is designed and maintained by the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT Media Lab.
