Episode Synopsis

mama.codes mission is to start all young children on their coding journey and give them the confidence and ability to code.
The teaching method introduces children as young as three to coding through song, rhyme and storytelling using free kids’ coding App ScratchJr.
Coding is the new literacy. It is on the school curriculum in the UK from age 5 because it is important that every child is digitally literate in order to thrive and succeed in an increasingly digital world.
Through following our creative coding projects, children of all backgrounds and learning styles are able to learn to code creatively with confidence. Most importantly they can have a lot of fun with code, and make full use of their bountiful imagination.
