Easy Computer Programming for kids
My kids (ages 8.14) have been wanting to get into computer programing for some time now. I know NOTHING about computer programing so I didn’t even know where to start. I have read a couple of reviews on programs and thought I might add in something next year to our curriculum. That seemed to be a good answer but they kept asking if I had found anything yet. You know I love it when they show interest in a subject like that! I was contemplating trying to budget in a program and then this awesome woman posted her blog link in one of my homeschooling Facebook groups.
I swear if I knew where this woman lived I would send her a dozen cookies (but it is creepy in this day and age to ask someone for their address ),so instead I wanted to share it here with all of you. I am sure someone else has kids like mine who have been asking for something like this!
She gives you 4 FREE ways for your kids to learn easy computer programming . She also includes another paid way to learn and explains why she felt like this was a good deal (she isn’t making money on any of the links- just being awesome and sharing!love that!!)
I will be working in some of these into our schooling this week and I can’t wait to see how the kids like them. I will be posting throughout the month about what they liked and didn’t like about each site so stay tuned!

Do you have any sites or ways you teach computer programming? Or do you have a kid who would love to try these out? Tell me about it in the comments!
