Educators and parents have realized that coding has become as vital as reading, writing, and math. For modern students who will be entering college and the workforce in the next decade, it’s a basic literacy–one we can’t afford to overlook.

Forget on traditional enrichment classes. More children are being sent for computational thinking and coding lessons as parents increasingly see the value in starting them early in a manpower-hungry industry.
  1. Programmers are in high demand. According to Code.org, 71% of all new STEM jobs are in computing, yet only 8% of STEM graduates are in Computer Science. That’s a SERIOUS shortage of CS majors. Learning to code will increase your child’s odds of securing a lucrative STEM career, especially in a world where computing jobs are growing at over twice the national average. Coding has quickly become a vital skill, and Code.org points out that CS majors can earn 40% more than the college average.
  2. Coding provides a competitive advantage when applying to colleges, internships, and jobs. If you possess a hot skill that many of your peers lack–such as the ability to code–you instantly appear more desirable in the eyes of potential college admissions officers and employers.
  3. Coding fosters other crucial 21st century skills like critical thinking and problem-solving. For many developers, part of the appeal of coding is the challenge and reward of seeing their code come to life after a good debugging session. Don’t be fooled, however–with the right instruction, getting started with programming can be easy and fun.
  4. With programming knowledge, students better understand the world around them. Most of us don’t know the first thing about what makes our smartphones, laptops, social media networks, and video games run. Basic programming knowledge can change the way we interact the technologies we use (and take for granted) daily, and can open our eyes to the infinite possibilities of coding.
  5. Programming is fun and satisfying. While programming is logic-based, it’s also an extremely creative activity. If you know how to code, you can develop apps, video games, web sites, and more!
Convinced? The good news is, your child can begin learning to code today.

Scratch programming for kids Python programming for kids Web development for kids - HTML/CSS Web development for kids - JavaScript
HTML and CSS for kids Instead allow your child viewing sites created by others, why not teach your child to create their own site? Not sure where to start? Start by learning the basics of HTML and Css. HTML is the publishing language of the web. Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation of a document written in a markup language. In this course, you will learn the most used tags in HTML5 and CSS, and then create a website with those tags.

Suitable for 10 years old and up.


Javascript for kids/Teens JavaScript is the programming language of HTML and the Web. JavaScript ("JS" for short) is a full-fledged dynamic programming language that, when applied to an HTML document, can provide dynamic interactivity on websites. It is an interpreted language, so no special program is required to create usable code. Any plain text editor such as Notepad (one of the Accessories that comes in Windows) is quite satisfactory for being able to write JavaScript.

Suitable for 11 years old and up.


Python for Teens Python is a programming language that reads like normal speech. One rarely has to add comments to the code because Python code that is written well enough reads as if the comments are already included in the code. If your kids are going to learn something like coding, then you would want them to get a basic grasp on how to think like a programmer. With Python, students will have very few obstacles with regards to learning how to program. They will be able to learn how to construct programming ideas within their heads and then focus on transferring these ideas into instructions that the machine can interpret. Many of the common functionalities that programmers need are already built into the programming language, which makes this a great language for kids to learn.

Suitable for 11 years old and up.


Python for Teens Java is arguably a bit harder to learn than Python, but choosing Java as a first-time programming language will make learning any subsequent language a bit easier for students. Many students have already thought about creating their own apps or websites but simply don’t know where to start. Java has been around for two decades and there are so many online resources, toolkits and tutorials that virtually anything can be created from the ground up using Java. There are a few initial hurdles to overcome, such as installing JDK and understanding how the syntaxes work, but the object oriented setup of the programming language makes it easy for students to progress. Java looks similar to C and C++, but offers more functionalities, thereby enables students to create more robust programs.

Suitable for 11 years old and up.


C Sharp C# look alot like Java both in term of syntax and structure. C# does have some advantages and disadvatages when comparing to Java. C# is an elegant and type-safe object-oriented language. C# syntax is highly expressive, yet it is also simple and easy to learn but compare to Python, it is still more challenging. C# is excellent for writing GUI applications for the Windows platform. On the other hand, Python is excellent for computational tasks (under any platform).

Suitable for 11 years old and up.

C Sharp Scratch is a simple programming environment designed for kids aged 8 to 12. Instead of typing lines of text, as you do with traditional coding, you drag coloured blocks and join them together to build programs.

Although it uses a fairly simple programming language, Scratch lets your child create a pretty big range of projects, from computer-generated art and animated cartoons through to quizzes, puzzles and simple arcade games.

Suitable for 8 to 12 years old .

The programmers of tomorrow are the wizards of the future. You’re going to look like you have magic powers compared to everybody else.
– Gabe Newell
