For children aged 7+ who have completed “Code Your First Game” or have basic Scratch and game creation experience.
Take your child’s coding skills to the next level in this 6-day Scratch adventure! In this course, children build three brand-new games, diving deeper into game design, strategy, and logic.
Step by step, your child will code a maze challenge with obstacles, create a banana-catching game with health points, and design a hungry dinosaur game with sound effects and scoring. Each project introduces new coding concepts like variables, conditions, loops, and interactivity, all taught in a fun, child-friendly way.
Each day, from date of purchase, a new lesson unlocks — giving your child 30–45 minutes of engaging, hands-on coding to look forward to. Once unlocked, all lessons remain available for 2 months from the date of purchase, so your child can revisit and replay throughout the summer.
Guided by our multi-award-winning tutor, by the end of the course they’ll have three playable games and the confidence to start designing their very own!
This is the perfect next step after Code Your First Game, keeping your child excited about coding while sharpening problem-solving, logic, and creativity.
