Scratch Jr serves as a beginner’s coding language, empowering children between the ages of 5 and 7 to craft their own captivating stories and animations. By simply connecting graphical programming blocks, kids can bring characters to life, making them move, speak, dance, and interact. With the paint editor, children can customize characters, incorporating their unique voices, sounds, and even personal photos. The programming blocks serve as the magic wand, enabling children to animate their characters and unleash their imagination.
ScratchJr is available free from the Apple and Android stores, plus on desktops using the GitHub site.
Great starter projects can be found on the ScratchJr Site for free help showing students what the blocks can do.
