Scratch is a great tool that fosters logical and creative thinking among kids, and also creates an ecosystem that lets kids watch and learn from others around them. And if they like what other ‘programmers’ have created, they can also check out that code by clicking on a “see inside” button members can even “remix” the code to add their creativity.

Signing up for an account means children can post their creations onto the website for everyone to see. It teaches kids coding concepts such as conditional statements and loops with the help of ‘objects’ that can be dragged, dropped, and joined like Lego blocks to create animations and games. Scratch is a visual programming language developed by the MIT Media Lab for children, ages eight and above.
