Coding is an essential skill of the future as technology is here to stay and be very much part of our lives. Tech and automation require children to learn coding as a basic valuable skill. We at DIYA strongly believe that Coding is the next revolution. If we wish to help our children be future ready, they need to be introduced to coding and concepts of coding early, as developmentally, a younger child can absorb new concepts much faster and easier than a grown adult. Here are a few fun ways to make coding interesting for kids and can be learned from the comfort of home too. 

Introducing your kids to block programming for coding where cumbersome lines of code are replaced with a simple drag drop of blocks that use logical problem-solving methods, enabling the child to understand the concepts of problem solving and workflow in a play method. Examples of such programs are Scratch, Snap, and Code Monkey. 

Once the child is old enough to start with text-based computer programming languages, they can be slowly introduced to HTML/CSS, Python, Javascript and more.
