Can you share some here? I’m about to get my 3 year old into Scratch, since it’s already on his RPi.
I remember doing the exact same thing in grade school with Gorillas and QBASIC. I actually want to download it now and play it again.

- koverda 4y agoCan he read yet?
- HorizonXP 4y agoYes
- tartoran 4y agoI have a 4 year old and I find that he’s not ready to be exposed to computers let alone programming languages yet. There are so many things to learn at that age that sitting in front of a screen for too long may be a disadvantage. Im thinking a starting age is more like 6-8, of course depending on other factors as well. I find that 3-4 may be a good time to start reading though
- mattkevan 4y agoOur (then) 4 year old got the hang of Scratch Jr on the iPad really quickly. It’s great and gets kids used to sequencing, basic logic, loops, control flow and more without needing to be a confident reader. She loved, and still does love, drawing her own sprites and recording sound effects to create interactive stories.
- hansoolo 4y ago3 year old? Why?
- HorizonXP 4y agoHe’s pretty advanced for his age, so just want to expose him to all things, let him decide what he likes.
