Coding for Kids: A Hands-on Guide to Learning the Fundamentals of How to Code Games, Apps and Websites (Learn to Code) Paperback – 26 April 2021

Delighted from the purchase

Personally I found this book phenomenally helpful.

Contrary to the title, this is more for young adults. The book is self-published and some pages are like carbon copies, barely legible. There are clear explanations of HTML, CCS, etc but I was expecting fun activities, anecdotes and other child-centric approaches. I may keep it for reference but bought a different one for the 12 year old I had in mind as recipient, one that started right off with activities.

Supposed to be for kids but found it too complicated

Terrible book the script code doesn't work its incomplete. No explanation on how to do things and there isnt 50 exercises they're to do tasks at the end of the book.

This book is a disgrace. It would put any child off from learning coding. To give one tiny example "creating three folders allows us to remain balanced. It exemplifies radical enhancement." What this exemplifies is the use of dense impenetrable language. It is accompanied by instructions which require the use of a second computer to carry them out, alternatively the instructions would have to be written down to be used. It's horrible to think that any child or indeed his parent would think that it was due to his/her inadequacy that they could not follow this book. Amazon should look into this and remove it from sale. Don't waste your money.
