Coding For Kids: Before You Pick Python: The smart parent’s plain English guide to choosing your child’s first coding language

Don’t Let One Wrong Choice Turn Your Child Away from Coding Forever!

Know little to nothing about coding? Need help supporting Computer Science program at home? Unsure which coding language is the best choice for your child’s first coding experience? Confused by so many book titles saying their language is the best for kids? Confused by the words Scratch, Python, Lua, Java, HTML, or C++? Confused by the sheer number of “best choices”?

Are you scrolling through the maze of coding titles looking for any that have the word “kid” or “child” in them?.

What about the rest of title? Python? Scratch? Lua? HTML? Java? HTML? C++? How are you supposed to know what those are and which one is “the best” choice for your child?
They can’t all be the best choice for your child—because not every child is alike.

The Title of this book is: Coding for Kids: Before You Choose Python. Its purpose is exactly what it says—you need much more information before you can intelligently choose Python or any other coding tool for your child.

Imagine how to be 100% certain your choice is the best choice even if you know little to nothing about coding

Imagine a step-by-step guide that will enable you to match the best language to your child.

Imagine your child’s excitement when they successfully make their very first project because you made the right choice!

Author Kenneth Sinclair has been coding for more than 50-years. He has personally experienced the evolution of programming to where it stands today and therefore has a unique, complete understanding of coding language tools. Raising two coding kids of his own, he also has a unique insight into how to match a coding language tool to a child’s personal traits.

When you read through Coding for Kids: Before You Choose Python, you’ll learn:
* How to choose the best first language when you know little to nothing about coding or coding languages
* What are Scratch, Python, Lua, Java, HTML, and C++ and why you would pick one over another
* Why some kids are suited more towards one language than another and how to determine the best match
* How to setup the coding tools environment and monitor your kid’s coding progress
* How to effectively coach your child through periods of frustration, recognize misfits between languages and make changes midstream
* How to document your child’s progress using the included lesson plans, progress checklists, and child’s personal
learning profile
* How to determine when your child is ready to move to the next level coding language
* How to support your child's school Computer Science program at home

You will only get one chance to give your child a “best” first coding experience. If you choose the wrong language, that first bad experience will stay with your child (and you) for the rest of their coding life. Worse yet, choosing wrong and having a bad experience may end your child’s interest in coding completely.

This book was designed as a parent-to-parent plain English guide to matching the best coding language to your child so you can ensure their first experience with coding is a positive, lifetime memory! This book will provide you with:
* Clear overviews of Python, Scratch, Lua, HTML, Java, HTML, and C++
* Detailed, step-by-step learning plans for each language choice discussed
* Personal child profiling guides to help match them to their “best” coding language
* Readiness checklists to help gauge progress towards their “next” language
* Helpful coaching and analysis hints for parents throughout

Coding for Kids: Before You Choose Python is a complete guide to picking the best language for your child before you make that all important choice.

Author Kenneth Sinclair has been coding for more than 50-years. He began his coding career while in college in 1967 using a paper tape reading ASR-33 console connected to a major time-sharing network running Fortran IV, COBOL, and BASIC. Since that early beginning, as a cross-functional engineer, he has developed hundreds of commercial software and hardware applications based on major coding languages and on both embedded and computing systems.Ken has literally experienced the evolution of programming to where it stands today and therefore has a unique, extensive understanding of coding languages and tools. Raising two coding kids of his own, he also has a unique insight into how to match a coding language tool to a child's personal traits.Ken has a BSEE degree and an Associate Science degree with minors in mathematics and physics. He is also a retired commercial pilot and FAA certified flight instructor. In support of his lengthy engineering and aviation careers, he has by necessity acquired professional skills in development and delivery of training and educational materials across many different disciplines. He recently retired as a global training manager for the human resources department of a major worldwide electronics distributor with over 22,000 employees world-wide. In this role Ken was responsible for development and delivery of hundreds of teaching guides, presentations, training programs and educational materials across many different disciplines including sales, personal and professional development, and technology. In addition to authoring and publishing books, as a commercial pilot and certified flight instructor, Ken continues to provide flight instruction to student and commercial pilots. He has also served as an accident prevention counselor with the Federal Aviation Agency and has authored and delivered numerous training curricula in the private and commercial aviation field.
