It's nice that you advertise your business here but for a passionate child this is boring. Double-clicking a box and changing text teaches them nothing, instead of paying $9/mo I can pay $0/mo and have them utilize free courses, YouTube, and teach them how to read documentation like MDN which will benefit them way more than simply teaching them how to use your website.

Not every child is the same - some enjoy our course and find it valuable. HTML Planet can spark kids interest for going deeper into web creativity. Self-learning resources you mentioned require strong pre-existing motivation and/or hands-on parental guidance. Some kids have that naturally while others require more gentle kid-friendly introduction.
