Parent questions
Everything you're wondering
Some coding helps — a Python or Scratch background is ideal. Motivated beginners can start here; the mentor adjusts the ramp.
Yes. Each capstone produces a shareable build so friends and family can play what your child made.
Both. The course covers game mechanics and a mobile-style app; the capstone is the student’s choice.
Sessions balance design thinking, sketching and playtesting with coding, so it builds creative and analytical skills, not just screen hours.
