🎨 Scratch Programming
The perfect first step into coding
Your child learns to code by building real things they love, animated stories, interactive cards, mini-games and creative art, all inside Scratch, MIT's block-based coding platform. No typing, no frustration, just creativity unlocked.
Curriculum designed by educators & engineers from
Real Projects
What Your Child Will Build
Every session ends with a visible addition to a real project. By the time the course is complete, your child will have a portfolio of creative work they built themselves.
Animated Birthday Card
An interactive card with moving characters, music and personalised messages
Mini Platformer Game
A side-scrolling game with coins, enemies and a winning score
Interactive Story
A branching adventure story where the reader makes choices
Scratch Art Gallery
A collection of animated artwork and generative patterns
Course Modules
What They'll Learn
Six structured modules, each one building on the last, from their very first sprite to a fully playable game.
Blocks & How Code Works
Sprites, events, sequences
Motion & Animation
Moving sprites, pen drawing, coordinate system
Sound & Music
Adding audio, creating rhythm patterns
Conditions & Decisions
If/else logic, user input, branching
Loops & Repetition
Repeat blocks, forever loops, patterns
Variables & Scoring
Score tracking, lives, game states
Is This Course Right?
Who It's For
Perfect for
- Complete beginners, zero coding experience needed
- Ages 6–8 (younger children with parental participation, older work independently)
- Kids who love storytelling, drawing, games or music
Not the right fit
- Kids who have already completed a Scratch course (we recommend Game Development)
How It Works
How Sessions Work
45–60 Minute Sessions
One live session per week, enough time to go deep without losing focus.
Screen-Share & Co-Build
Your child's tutor shares their screen and builds alongside them in real time.
Something New Every Session
Every session ends with a visible addition to the project, no empty-handed days.
Parents Welcome to Observe
Sit in on any session. Many parents join the first 2–3 to support practice at home.
Parent Stories
What Parents Say
“My 7-year-old now explains 'loops' to me at dinner. She built a whole story game. I had no idea she could do that.”
Adaeze O.
Lagos
“I was worried it would be too hard, but her tutor made it feel like play. She cried when we had to end the session.”
Folake M.
London
“He's obsessed. He spends his free time on Scratch now, making things we didn't ask him to.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Scratch and do we need to download anything?
Scratch is a free, browser-based coding platform made by MIT. No downloads needed, just a browser and internet connection. We'll set everything up in the first session.
My child is only 6, is that too young?
Six-year-olds can absolutely do Scratch with the right support. Our tutors are trained to work with very young learners, and we adjust the pace and complexity to what each child can handle comfortably. We recommend parental presence for the first 2–3 sessions.
How long until my child builds a real game?
Most children build their first simple interactive project in sessions 2–3, and their first proper game by sessions 6–8. Progress depends on the child's pace, we never rush.
What if my child already knows a little Scratch?
We do a quick assessment in the first session. If they're beyond the basics, we'll recommend our Game Development course which works with more advanced Scratch and introduces real physics and level design.
Can I sit in on the sessions?
Yes, parents are welcome to observe any session. Many parents find it helpful to watch the first few sessions so they can support practice at home.
