Helpful as a guide for parents wanting to introduce kids to coding. Would be tough for young kids to go through on their own.
Very focused on mechanics and examples over explanation of what is being done. That works ok for Scratch since its structures are simple. It makes the Python section problematic. Feels like paint by numbers rather than learning.

Have Computer, Will Teach
I enjoyed reading another book on how to teach kids computer coding.
One of these days I will go forth and actually do some volunteering.
I just got my 4th vaccine, so maybe sooner than later - although our PHO has pretty much completely forgotten that COVID is a thing when it comes to masks in schools and public transit, etc. - so maybe it'll be a few years still.
4.5/5
