Coding for Kids

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Unlock the most important skill of the 21st century. Does your child love video games and apps but you have no idea where to start? "Coding for Kids" is the perfect first step. This guide demystifies programming by starting where every great coder begins: not with memorizing code, but with learning how to think. This book is built on one simple secret: programming logic is the real skill. Once you learn the logic, learning any language (like Scratch or Python) becomes easy. This guide breaks down big, scary concepts into simple, real-world examples (like recipes and LEGOs) that kids can understand. Author Alex Knight guides your child on a journey from being a tech user to becoming a tech creator. Inside this easy-to-follow guide, your child will discover: How to Think Like a Coder: Learn the art of "Decomposition" (breaking big problems into small ones) and "Pattern Recognition." The "Core Five" Tools: Master the five building blocks of all programming: Variables (memory boxes), Loops (repeat buttons), Conditions (smart choices), Functions (recipe cards), and Debugging (bug hunting). Real-World Logic: Understand how computers "think" using algorithms and simple binary (On/Off switches). From Plan to Project: Use all the tools to plan and build a complete mini-project from scratch. The Next Step: See how your new logic skills translate directly to real block-based (Scratch) and text-based (Python) programming. This book is more than a coding manual. It is a guide to problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking. By the end, your child will not just know about coding; they will have the confidence and the "Coder Thinking" skills to design any project they can imagine.
