Folks, how's the fam? How are you? I'm feeling much better but... Still unclear what I have\had.
Kid has been learning how to code and design games and animations with Scratch. Absolutely loves it. She’s learning troubleshooting, programming, breaking and fixing things, it’s splendid.
However, we have also discovered that the online community for Scratch is exceedingly poorly moderated and apparently full of pedos.
Sooo yeah we had to walk that back a bit. But we got it downloaded locally and she’s still having a blast.
I briefly looked into Scratch for a bit of fun but something about their site looking so dated made me nope out of it.
If she is getting the fundementals down, maybe look into moving over to JavaScript or Python. But like still have fun with it. One thing I would have absolutely loved as a kid is access to programming but we didn't get our first computer until I was in high school and I didn't touch code until I was in my mid 20's.
