Programming and Coding Platform for Children

Hunter's comment
Its good to get children interested in programming and AI at an early age because it becomes instinctive and more natural to them. Like with tablets and mobile phones, children often know more about how to work them than the parents simply because they have had these devices in their hands since a very early age.
mBlock is graphical programming software for children based on Scratch 3.0. The software can be used to programme IoT devices, create games or make animations and is compatible with a lot of smart hardware like Arduino and micro:bit.
With Microsoft cognitive services and Google deep learning feature, mBlock 5 has the power to expose children to AI technologies and let them easily understand the fundamentals of AI through games and applications.

IT technology has already made the world convenient and improved many things. Software is at the center of all innovation such as internet, mobile, self-driving car, AI, big data, and IOT. Therefore, a coding platform that allows children to have an early interest in programming or artificial intelligence is important.
Among the kids who have used this platform, I think they can be the founder of the second Google, the second Amazon, and the second Tesla. It would be even better if the program supported the language of many countries so that many children in the world can try it.

I remember messing around with Scratch soon after it came out. It's massively different from other programming languages when it comes to actual coding. It doesn't mean anybody can pickup Scratch and start coding. You still need to learn few basics. mBlock takes things further and makes things better.
I really liked the idea of programmable DIY robot kits and Switch to Python with one click. This can actually help teach kids learn, familiarize and understand Python much better over time and Python is a favorite among programmers.
Great Hunt!

That's a really interesting app.
I think children can start programming interestingly with it. The graphics are so cute that it'll be good for them to get interested. IT technology is increasingly coming into our lives, and I think programming is really becoming important. I'm going to teach my 5-year-old son how to program this. I really like it. Thank you for sharing.

If only this tool was available during my days of being a child, i wont be stressing now to learn what i am learning but how many children are smart enough to be interested in this. personally i would make my children want to learn ...cool product here

What thing that i have always love is the aspect that children can be introduced to a stuff that will really contribute to their future later. For sure, programming is a lovely field and everybody want to be a programmer. At my age is so painful i don't have programming skills. So introducing them to programming at early age is something unique and Lovely it will go a lot way contributing to their feature. Thanks for this lovely hunt.

I think schools just need to upgrade their curriculum to make it mandatory for kids to learn programming. It's already an important skill to have and can't imagine how important it'll be in the future. This is a great tool for kids to pick up these skills till the time schools catch up.

Teaching children how to code is very important. A lot of jobs and opportunities will be in the field of technology and if you are ale to code you can improve your lifestyle and also you wire your brain to become a natural problem solver.

@mrfringe cool hunt. It is great that there are these platforms for children and that they can start using programming when they are young. Hopefully this can help them see how easy it is to do coding and start doing them when they are young. This is so needed in this generation. Great hunt.

Its really good that there are now many platforms for children to learn about programming. I'm amaze on the language that they use, that is a python, which is very unusual because i thought that the language will use would C and its really great that they start on python programming.

veru nce tools for learning coding. Specially it made for children. Hope this platform make easier to learning coding for children. Nice hunt . @mrfringe dude, you going to be a famous hunter like @calprut @aamirizaj. lol😂
All the best and keep doing good for steemhunt.

Making programming fun for the little children will prove its worth on the long term.
Great product!

I am a subscriber to the idea that coding should be learned at tender age. Here I am with zilch knowledge about coding but I won't allow my kids to tour the same path. One of the reasons a platform such as this is very relevant

The first time I saw mblock5, my mind immediately recalled Scratch, and after visiting the official page of mblock5, it turned out to be true, this platform was inspired by Scratch and maybe with more complete features.
What I like most is the
Go to Python with one-clickfeature, this is interesting because it can convert block logic into the Python programming language. Impressive.Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

It is great to teach your children in coding especially it has high level programming. Children will surely love this and maybe they won't stop learning to code. Nice hunt @mrfringe

I'm so excited to get my 5 year old daughter coding - and I think she's ready to go, so I'll be looking into this.
At this stage, it's more important that she understands the concept of coding, the general ideas of being able to control computers or devices (and how you can do it with coding), and to start thinking more about problem solving.
[Sorry teachers, but] I don't trust the schools to teach computing, tech and especially coding in any kind of beneficial way. Most teachers won't really understand what they're teaching and school curriculums (at least in the UK) are way behind the times.
There are so many resources available to allow this kind of learning outside of school, that I'd prefer a more hands-on approach. Sure, she can learn whatever school are intending to teach her too, but you can never over-do problem-solving work.
What I love most about this product/system is the way it makes the coding so accessible. Dragging blocks is far easier to get for young children than writing lines of code - there's plenty of time for that!
Thanks for the hunt.
