About the program

Why kids love it

Python is the most popular first "real" language in the world — readable, powerful and the gateway to AI and data science. Ages 7–8 get ready with Scratch and their first line of Python; ages 9–11 draw with Turtle graphics and build arcade games; ages 12–14 build real apps with live data.

  1. 1

    Code that draws

    Turtle graphics turn loops and functions into art, patterns and animated stories.

  2. 2

    Code that plays

    Kids build arcade games and smart quizzes with scores, levels and sound.

  3. 3

    Code that solves

    Real apps with live data — weather dashboards, chatbots and data stories.

Talk to us

Not at all. Code Explorers (7–8) learn with colorful Scratch blocks and puzzles, so there is very little typing. They only meet typed Python once they are ready, in the Python Builder level (9–11).

Any laptop or desktop with a keyboard and mouse. We use free tools like Scratch, Thonny and Replit and set them up together in the first class.

Yes — the program builds the core computational-thinking skills used in school computer science, math and coding clubs.

Small-group live classes have a maximum of 6 students, so every child gets individual attention.

Every class is recorded for your family, and we offer free make-up sessions so no one falls behind.
