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

I got this for my son who is an intermediate player of Minecraft. He appreciated the various tips and tricks he learned during the play of this program. It takes you through some useful builds that he has then applied to his Minecraft play. Overall he has seemed to benefit from the practice at coding. Great STEM program for kids who are into Minecraft!

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

I liked that this came as an actual card instead of just a digital code. I got this to use with one of my homeschool kids.

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

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

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.

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.

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

My 8 y/o is a Minecraft nerd, and just generally very interested in nerdy tech stuff, so this seemed perfect for him. He had asked me about command blocks before, but my computer expertise doesnt stretch far beyond Excel/VBA and the EHR system our hospital uses.

Our 13yo son lives and breathes Minecraft and we thought this would be a fun way to convert his playtime into learning time. Clear instructions. Im a software engineer by training and this is a nice intro to coding.
