> 3 dayWe gave this course to my 7yr old for his birthday. I cant believe how well done it is. He fist pumps his way through fun quizzes and troubleshooting adventure maps while learning to program. If this is the future of learning, sign us up for more!

> 3 dayI bought this for my 8 year old grandson. He loves Minecraft and all things computer related. I thought this might help him learn to do something more useful than playing games. It is wonderful! My son and grandson work together on this and he is really learning to code using Java. It is not an easy program to use, but they have wonderul support available. I would recommend this for older children also, my 8 yo is probably the exception in his ability to master the concepts (no, that is not just proud grandma talk - this kid is AMAZING with computers and games). Overall, well worth the money and I plan to buy more of their products.

> 3 dayMy 11 years old son loves it!!!! It is fun, easy to follow, and he is learning new things everyday!!! Even his sisters are learning how to use programs and install them. Great for any kid who loves to play Minecraft and is ready to take it to a new level!! It allows kids to make changes to the game themselves instead of having to find a mod someone else created. My son loves personalizing the game with his ideas!!!!

> 3 dayMy 10 year old loves Minecraft and this was a double win. He is playing his game and learning great skills. He reports that he is able to follow the tutorials without help from us and he is happy to be learning over his Christmas vacation! So a triple win! We will be getting the 2nd lesson after he finished this one!

Greater than one weekI bought this for my 11 year old son based on a facebook post when it went on sale for $49.99. We homeschool, and this was an addition to regular curriculum. Im so glad I purchased it! You should know that there is no software in the box, you simply receive a web address and a code to download the software. We have a Macbook and our son was able to follow the online directions and install everything himself. Hes a bright boy, but not necessarily a computer nerd, so a child who can listen and follow directions will be successful with this. He has had a little bit of programming instruction through the free online Khan Academy, so the first few lessons were a wonderful review for him. That was yesterday. Today, he started to make a sword. He ran into a few little problems with his code, so he sent a message through the help feature and received timely answers that helped him sort out his mistakes on his own. I was copied on all of those messages, too! (Great feature, there!) After a bit of trial and error, he was able to import the sword (sorry, light saber) and use it in his Minecraft kingdom. My husband and I didnt have to do a thing to help. What a relief to find a product like this that doesnt require hours of tech support and troubleshooting just to make it work for your kid!

> 3 dayMy son is 8 and I was worried this would be too difficult for him. Turns out I was SO wrong as they manage to teach even the very basics (like introducing Ctrl + C for copy) without ever once being dull. I actually enjoy sitting with my son as he learns to mod Minecraft and watching the lessons with him! Id highly recommend this for anyone (child or adult) interested in learning to program in Java and/or wanting to learn to mod Minecraft.
