> 24 hourWe found this to be easy to follow and understand the instructions. It’s basically an online class/interactive workbook. I don’t know if I’d recommend it for younger children. It really depends on your understanding of computers since it’s computer coding. I definitely think it’s way overpriced for what it is.

> 24 hourMy son loves Minecraft, so in the hopes of sneaking in some education, I ordered this for him. The set up is pretty typical, just create an account and off you go. While you could probably search for similar lessons on YouTube or elsewhere, its nice to have them in one place, especially when its for a 9 year old who learns better when everything is given in a seamless order. Its definitely holding his attention, as hes gone back to it repeatedly over his holiday break!

> 24 hourI ordered this for my son and he loves it. It is easy for him to use as a beginner and I like that there is tech support. This is a great gift to give to any child who has an interest in learning to code.

> 24 hourOur child has used scratch before so they understand code blocks, but this grabbed their attention more since they could do it in Minecraft.

> 24 hourMinecraft command blocks are sources of unlimited power or control depending on the code behind them. Video tutorial style seems to fit what kids are used to with YouTube. I wouldnt ask my 13 yo to go figure it out, I would stay available to help unstuck him when he overlooks an error.

> 24 hourAlthough the webpage suggested an actual course (book), the product delivered certainly was not what expected to give to my child.

> 24 hourReally engaging if you don’t know the gists of coding. Play a game while you learn! I really like how simple it was to set up on my computer and the walk through tutorial was easy to follow. Wish there were more advanced levels is all but maybe there’s a different software game for that

> 24 hourI thought this was a great idea and could work well. I do networking as a profession and never got into coding which I really wanted to. I could never find the time so I tried this to get started. The only thing is it did not keep my interested long enough to stick with it. If I have time, I may take this up again in the future.
