Last year (19-20) we purchased a Code Combat subscription for my son. It was listed above his age and grade level (they recommend ages 9+/4th grade), but he has caught on to coding easily so I thought I'd give it a try. Unfortunately, it was just too advanced for a kindergartner that is still learning how to read fluently. That's not the fault of the program, but I definitely caution others to try before you buy if your kiddos are below the recommended age. Anyway... now we had a coding subscription we couldn't use and the charter wouldn't cover a second- so code.org to the rescue.
Code.org is absolutely free. They have coding lessons for ages 4+ that are amazingly intuitive to use, and they even have ones aimed at pre-readers- so your child can start coding before they can even read. I've heard complaints about the use for older kids, but for early elementary I think it's perfect. They also have Hour of Code which is a one-hour tutorial- there are 500+ to choose from in 45 different languages. And it's FREE.
This app is garbage its just a ripoff of scratch why was this made if this was made almost everyone will just use scratch instead unless you are dumb to use this app
code.org is bull$#*! and it does not let me complete any of the lessons and I hate it it is not fun and and annoying #Ihatecode.organditsbull$#*!
HAS AGE RESTRICTIONS FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE SMARTER THAN THE REST JUST BECAUSE THERE YOUNG LIKE GURL GET YOUR GAME UP AND GIVE ME ROBUX AND MONEY
