BusyCode

BusyCode is a fun, engaging and exciting introduction to coding for kids aged 6-13 years. Kids can access creative coding challenges, coding tutorials and coding projects through two components: Code Disco and Beard Man’s Adventures.  It’s a great lead into Scratch which is used in schools to learn coding and complete coding projects.

BusyCode is accessible through BusyThings.

BusyCode

Code Disco offers basic coding training through repeat loops, conditionals, events and variables. Children can build programs by linking simple blocks together using a drag and drop feature.

Beard Man’s Adventures allows children to explore adventures with over 45 levels.  Children must write code to direct Beard Man through a series of chambers avoiding a series of hazards.  To finish a level, children must help Beard Man solve a puzzle to open a treasure chest, and then escape from a final chamber before the gate closes!
