Interactive Programming Workshop for Kids (Ages 8-12)
Are you ready to ignite your child’s creativity and introduce them to the exciting world of programming? Join our two-hour workshop designed specifically for children aged 8 to 12 years.
What to Expect:
Introduction to Scratch: We’ll kick off the workshop by exploring Scratch, a beginner-friendly visual programming language. Participants will learn how to create animations, games, and interactive stories using Scratch’s colorful blocks.
Basic Programming Concepts: Building a strong foundation is essential! We’ll cover fundamental programming concepts such as loops, conditionals, and variables. Don’t worry if your child is new to coding—we’ll make it engaging and easy to understand.
Hands-On Coding Session: Get those creative gears turning! Participants will dive into hands-on coding exercises. Our experienced instructors will guide them through fun challenges, encouraging problem-solving and critical thinking.
Creative Game Development: What’s more exciting than building your own game? Kids will design and develop their mini-games, adding characters, sounds, and interactive elements. It’s all about unleashing their imagination!
Project Showcase and Discussion: At the end of the workshop, each child will present their project to the group. We’ll celebrate their achievements, discuss what they’ve learned, and share ideas for future coding adventures.
