Regular readers will know that I am a huge fan and funder of teaching kids to code. I believe helping young people learn to think logically via coding exercises is helpful to their development in so many ways.
So when I came across the NextMaker project on Kickstarter, I backed it instantly.
NextMaker is a monthly box that comes with a project that your kids can do combining coding with making things. The programming is all block based (visual) so youngsters can do it easily and it is fun for them.
I’m embedding the video here on the web, but if you get this via email, click on this link and watch it.
