Coding for Kids: Learn to Code Minecraft Command Blocks - Video Game Design Coding Software - Computer Programming Courses, Ages 9+ (PC, Mac Compatible)

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

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

Minecraft 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.

Really 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

TLDR; 100% online course; requires creating accounts, seems easy enough to follow for my 10yr old kid

Got this for my kids, and since they already had the game, they were up and running directly.

My 12 year old is really into the hacking as he calls it, but its basically command blocks. All of his knowledge is from his friends and word of mouth, so I got this hoping to provide him some structured lessons about the meaning behind the command blocks and their full capabilities. I do like that the lessons are bite-sized, about 5 minutes of lessons, and 5 minutes of follow-along activity which is a pretty good format for something like this. I havent needed to try tech support as the lessons so far hes able to follow along. Im trying to find the right viewing method for this work, but so far watching the lessons on an iPad next to the computer running Minecraft seems to work best. Its less clumsy than losing focus with multiple windows with lessons and Minecraft on the same machine. Looking forward to the rest of the lessons being released and will update the review accordingly. Pretty happy so far.

My 10 year old has been really interested in coding and this was a great place for him to start. He truly is a beginner and this program has taught him the basics and even held this adult noob. It was really easy to install and easy to understand and they made it fun. Highly recommend

I thought this was a book when I ordered it. This is a card with a code to redeem on a website for the lessons. The lessons are good and easy to follow for a 6 year old. Lessons are good length and not to long. This is good for anyone interested in learning monecraft command block coding

We 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.
