About Coding
- Q: Is my kid too young to learn how to code?
- A: It's never to early to learn how to code. Kids even at 4 year of age, can start to learn the logic behind coding. They will learn in a fun and creative way and will not realize that they will be learning a new language.
- Q: Will my child be on the screen all day?
- For the younger kids 5 - 7 year-old, they don't need to be in front of a screen to learn the basics of programming. If there is some screen time, we limit the time and give breaks in between.
- For kids 8 - 12 years old, we work on the concepts of coding off-screen before working onscreen. Even though most of the courses involve screen time, we give breaks every 45-50 mins.
