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

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.

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.

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

I 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.

Great to give my kids a head start in coding.

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.

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

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

Since this was a gift for my nephew, I asked him to write a review, from a users point of view. The following review is from my 10 year old nephew - indirectly quoted (edited for grammer and clarity):
