ScratchJr

ScratchJr is an educational app designed to introduce young children to programming and problem-solving through visual coding. It uses colorful, drag-and-drop blocks that represent actions and commands, allowing kids to create interactive stories, animations, and games without needing to read complex code. The platform promotes creativity, sequencing skills, and logical thinking in a fun, accessible way, typically suitable for children ages 5 to 7. Developed by MIT Media Lab and education experts, ScratchJr aims to build foundational digital literacy and foster an early interest in STEM concepts.
