Definitely recommend MIT's Scratch, it's the closest thing (in terms of "they don't even know they're coding!") to Hypercard out there, tons of games and community examples, my kids make animated movies with it. There's a board game Robot Turtles based on the Logo version where you provide instructions via a stack of cards to navigate your turtle through a maze. The game is scored like golf, fewer cards are better, and it includes looping cards. Definitely designed more for elementary students but it's visual, intuitive, and you (as parent) can "design" the maze. There are several similar video games (they are simple and cute enough to paper their very dry subject matter, and they are level/puzzle based so easy to dole out in manageable amounts of enthusiasm ) Lightbot Human Resource Machine 7 Billion Humans Also my kids and I whiteboarded out and then coded a few of the games from https://github.com/coding-horror/basic-computer-games It was fun acting as the game designer who wanted this feature or that! |
