Synopsis

Coding for kids without a computer―an offline skill-building book for ages 5 to 7

Coding helps kids develop analytical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and beyond! In this exciting guide to coding for kids, your child will discover the core concepts of coding through colorful games and activities―without using a computer.

These fun challenges can be done right inside the book or with everyday objects to help kids practice the same skills coders use, like writing clear instructions, recognizing patterns, and working efficiently. There's even a place for your beginner to invent their own codes!

This coding for kids book features:

• Coding fundamentals―Practice algorithms, loops, conditionals, optimization, debugging, and variables with games that help kids think like a computer programmer.
• Meet the coder crew―Explore coding for kids with a whole cast of characters, including Al the helper, Pixel the creative expert, Lo the problem-solver, Bug the pattern-spotter, and their robot dog Spot the Bot!
• On and off the page―Sharpen skills with fun on-the-page puzzles and off-the-page activities that give kids a chance to practice in different ways.

Set your little ones up for success with coding for kids that only requires a pencil, paper, and their imagination.
