Description
Learn to code with Loopie, our coding robot! Your child will learn to code in Python, which is an easy to learn, yet widely used coding language. Children will learn basic coding concepts such as algorithms, variables, printing, debugging, input command, and conditional if-else structure. Python will help with learning other coding languages in the future and is full of positive “Oh, this is how it works!” discovery moments.
