Today I am going to be sharing a SUPER SIMPLE coding game for kids. We use this activity to introduce kids to coding and to teach basic coding skills. This STEM activity is so easy to set up, it essentially requires no work or prep! All you need for this coding activity for kids is a deck of cards, some tape, and some toys that you already have lying around your house or classroom.

This activity is an example of a screen-free coding activity or 'coding unplugged' activity. Coding doesn't always mean you have to be attached to your computer! For another outdoor SUPER SILLY screen free coding activity, check out this coding unplugged activity.

What Coding Skills are Taught?

Algorithms: At the most basic level, coding involves giving instructions to a computer to make something happen. In this activity, we will be practicing giving instructions to get from start to finish.. These instructions are an example of an algorithm. An algorithm is simply a set of instructions given to complete a task. By giving the correct instructions, we will help our robots make it to the finish line.

Debugging: In the advanced version of the activity, kids will need to think ahead and problem-solve by writing the ENTIRE code in advance. They will also get the opportunity to ' debug ' if their code doesn't work out.

Loops: If you purchase our deck of cards worksheet and game set your students will have the option to use loops to make their algorithms more efficient. Loops are instructions that repeat until specific conditions are met.

What do you need?

Deck of Cards Printable Set

We've created a printable to go along with this activity that makes running this activity in the classroom or home even easier.

Our printable includes:

Start and Finish Game Pieces

Algorithm and Loop arrow pieces to create an algorithm next to your deck of cards

4 Deck of Card Challenges that encourage students to create unique algorithms

Worksheet set with supplementary questions to help your students learn the basic concepts of coding

What age is this coding activity with kids geared towards?

This activity is suitable for kids age 4 and up. There are different levels of difficulty depending on the age and skills of the child.

Our printable worksheet is suitable for ages 7+ .

My son is 4.5 and he loved this activity!

How to Set Up this Screen Free Coding Activity:

This activity is SUPER easy to set up. You want to create a grid with the deck of cards. I made a 7×7 grid with our deck. I used painter's tape to secure the deck of cards to the floor.

Then I took a bunch of toys and placed them on the cards such that it would be difficult for my son to figure out how to get from the start to the finish. Essentially you are creating a maze with the toys.

We used a car as our 'robot'. You can also use an action figure, a game piece, a sticker, or ANYTHING. Cars are nice because it's easy to understand which direction they are facing when you are giving your 'coding instructions' later on.

Just like any kid who has ever been exposed to YouTube, my son is obsessed with kinder surprise eggs. SO I used this as the prize. You absolutely do not need a prize for this game. Lots of kids will be motivated just to solve the puzzle. Other ideas would be to have an action figure that needs to 'rescue' someone at the end. There are so many possible adaptations to this game.

How to Play:

Start with your 'robot' in the starting position. You will need to give 'coding instructions' to the robot to get him to the finish line to claim the prize!

Coding with a deck of cards video instructions

Coding for kids: EASY VERSION

We played the easy version with my son who is 4.5. In this version, the 'coding instructions' are given one at a time to direct the robot to the finish line (prize)

e.g. ' Move forward 3 cards', 'turn' 'move backward 1 card' etc.

After each instruction, the 'robot' will move and then the child will have to make a decision as to what the next instruction should be.

It's fun to switch roles. My son liked being the robot and the 'programmer'. When my son was the robot, he got excellent practice of his listening skills.

Coding for kids: HARD VERSION

For the more difficult version of this game, kids will need to give the ENTIRE code in advance.

It can help to have a piece of paper to write out the code (either pictorial or with words depending on the child's reading level)

Once the child is happy with their code, the parent will get the robot to perform the code. If there is a mistake, the child will have a chance to 'debug' their code and fix it for the next run.

This can also be done with a coding robot toy. Check out my review of both the Botley Coding Robot and the Edison Robot for more ideas!

Our printable set includes game pieces that help you create your algorithm!

If you are using our printable set you will be able to use the included game pieces to create a start and finish

Algorithm cards can be used to create the algorithm in advance

Students will create their own mazes using the challenges included in the set!

Pin for Later!

Introducing kids to coding early is seen as vitally important by parents, educators, and tech leaders. Give your child a head start in learning how to code with Hopster Coding Safari.

We have created this animal themed pre-coding logic game to help kids learn the fundamentals of coding. Children are presented with a series of logic problems to solve, getting different animals to where they need to be.

What your child will learn from Hopster Coding Safari:

- The fundamentals of computational thinking
- Foundations of coding
- Problem solving
- Planning

This game will engage young children in computational thinking - the fundamental techniques needed to understand coding - without them realising they are learning. It will also ignite their passion for puzzles and problem-solving - all while playing a fun game with animals.

It could be the Tiger that needs to get back to her den, the Penguin trying to return to its Antarctic Ice Hole, the hungry Monkey desperate to get to the banana tree, or one of the other animals in this app - here, play is at the heart of learning to code.

The tasks in Hopster Coding Safari become increasingly complex to resolve, and completing them gently guides your child through the four fundamental techniques of computational thinking:

- Decomposition
- Pattern recognition
- Abstraction
- Algorithms

These are the basic techniques children need in order to learn how to code. So our game doesn't teach any specific programming languages but gives young children these foundations from which they will build on and learn to code.

Our Learning Goals:

1. Introducing children to computational thinking
* Going through a problem-solving process
* Breaking it down & looking for patterns
* Developing a step-by-step solution
* Reflecting on their choices

2. Delivering key computer science standards for UK (Early Years & Key Stage 1) and US Curriculum (Kindergarten through 2nd Grade)
* Understand what algorithms are
* Create and follow algorithms
* Model the way programs store and manipulate data by using symbols to represent information
* Develop programs with sequences and simple loops, to express ideas or address a problem
* Decompose the steps needed to solve a problem into a precise sequence of instructions
* Debug errors in algorithm that includes sequences and simple loops
* Use logical reasoning to predict the behaviour of simple programs

Toddlers and preschoolers will love the animal theme, and each one has been chosen to represent one of the 7 continents - Bear (North America), Fox (Europe), Tiger (Asia), Elephant (Africa), Monkey (South America), Penguin (Antarctica), and Kangaroo (Australia).

Built by the team behind Hopster, the award-winning kids learning and entertainment app, Hopster Coding Safari is 100% safe and ad-free.

Unlock the second coding world through a single in-app purchase or by using your existing Hopster subscription*

*You will need to create a Hopster login to use an existing subscription across other apps and platforms.

We're always making updates to Coding Safari. This time it's nothing fancy, just some under the hood improvements.

Love it

Well my little sisters Love it and so does my student it's the best learning puzzle ever they play it all the time and boosted their brain with knowledge there's a best sisters and student I could ever have and I've been trying to find a game for them that that's not too inappropriate. But then I found this game and it was perfect and I love the stickers and I get to add a sticker every time I wonder what happens when you get all the stickersPerfect game love it more than anything I would play it but I'm not that into a little kid stuff but if you can make an older kid one I would love it and I would play it all the time since I am I am running out of ideas for games to play because one of my games glitched and got ruined I'm glad for this and my sisters and student loves it so much my student is so smart and she can tackle any puzzle now she's so good and she loves it thank you so much best puzzle ever.

Great intro to coding skills

I didn't want to be one of those parents that fights their kids when they use the screen. Instead I wanted to encourage mine to use it in a positive way. To that end I got this app for my 3 year old. He loves the sense of accomplishment when he completes the different levels and he's engaged throughout the process.

2yr old plays Loves this game

My little one is 2 1/2 she plays only with the bear it's a start but she loves the tigers im glad there are small children friendly apps now thank you for such a wonderful app to teach and have fun very easy for her and the other children I babysit all age ranges.

Ready for a tree-shaking, strawbie-munching adventure?

In Osmo's Coding Awbie, kids use physical blocks of code to program a wondrous journey for Awbie, a playful character who loves delicious strawbies.

Combining tangible blocks with interactive screen time, Coding Awbie is the easiest way to introduce your kids to coding.

Winner of the toy industry's top awards:
**Parent's Choice Gold Award, 2016**
**Oppenheim Best Toy, Platinum Award, 2016**

"It enables children to learn computational thinking"
- Forbes

"Osmo's blocks are like LEGO for coding"
- Engadget

"...for young children, one of the best is Osmo Coding"
- The Wall Street Journal

Coding Awbie teaches problem-solving and logic skills. It helps kids succeed in an increasingly digital world. Osmo Coding Awbie is the easiest way to learn the basics of programming.

* Requires the Osmo Base and Coding Blocks. Each sold separately or as part of Osmo Coding Starter Kit or Osmo Coding Family Bundle.

* Compatible with most iPads and select iPhones. Please see our device compatibility list here: https://support.playosmo.com/hc/articles/115010156067

About Osmo
Osmo is using the screen to create a new healthy, hands-on learning experience that promotes creativity, problem-solving and social interaction. We do this with our reflective artificial intelligent technology.

+ Improved onboarding experience for the users, better values and incentives for account creation

My five year old loves this coding game but....

My five year old loves this coding game so much it's all he talks about. However, he's blown through every available level in a few weeks (would have been sooner if we let him have more iPad time). He's asking me every day if there is an update yet?
Is there an idea of when more levels will be available?

Image recognition is TERRIBLE

Do not get this. If you've already purchased the kit, don't open it and return it. The recognition is so awful, my kids are getting turned off to coding. It's unbelievably frustrating to watch them figure out the symbology, place the tiles correctly, and then every 15 seconds say, "Dad, isn't this right?" And of course it's right, but the character keeps running into trees.

The trouble shooting support is laughable. Does everything except admit that the recognition is at fault. Yes, the camera settings are correct. Yes the lighting is more than adequate. Yes, the stand and mirror are positioned correct. Yes, the software is updated.

Save yourself the frustration and money. Hopefully all this is going to cost you is the time you took to purchase it and then return it. If I find another app that helps my kids understand and love coding, I'll update this review.

Nice concept, but keeps crashing

The app is nicely conceptualized. Like all the Osmo products, the screen plus hands-on-pieces combination really keeps my six year old engaged in learning. This and all Osmo products are a nice complement to existing curricula, especially when kids are home with school closures. But the app crashes (closes unexpectedly) every four or five minutes and my six year old loses a little bit of progress each time-thankfully, not all progress in the level is lost. This has really cut her motivation and she no longer wants to play this game. Other Osmo apps, especially the pizza game, have kept her engaged on an ongoing basis and they are much more stable. Would give this five stars if it didn't crash so much.

Version 1.16.1

Bug fixes and additional improvements

Random deletion

I made a program and sometimes when I open it it deletes everything in the project apart from the start. This protect is now empty and keeps its name. So far it has only done it with programs that use Dash. Please fix this problem so our programs don't delete randomly without using the delete button. I will give it five stars if you fix this. Also please add more to the Scroll quest.

Awesome with a suggestion

I love the program and how easy it is for kids to understand. It would be better if it was a user system that you could have multiple users using the same robots. That way I can have multiple children working with the same robots and not skip ahead because the older children went faster. Other than that it has been great so far.

Great until...

My daughter loves it, until we got to Dragon Reach - Thrill Ride. The command to "go backward" when fulfilling a sequence doesn't work. I even tried to do it during free play with no luck. I'm not sure if this is just me, but it should be easy since it is the first step in the series and I am doing exactly what the hint tells you to do. Other than being stuck there, my daughter loves it

Editors' Choice

"Coding" may sound a bit dry and daunting to some newcomers, but those are the last things that come to mind while using Hopscotch. The app lets you have as much fun making games as playing them, and with its colorful, friendly interface and stacks of help and tutorials, kids (and grown-ups!) can build all kinds of apps-while learning the fundamentals of programming. Best of all, you can share your creations so anyone with an iPhone or iPad can play them too!

Great app!!

This app was my first step into the coding world when I was young! I love hopscotch and it truly has encouraged me to learn other coding languages and get involved with programming. I can confidently say that hopscotch not only teaches you about coding, but it teaches kids problem solving, applying math and logic skills, perseverance, patience and so much more. I always loved spending summer days coding games and then being able to publish these games for other kids to play! This is definitely a great app for kids of all ages and all coding skill levels. Wether or not your child wants to be a professional game developer, this app will benefit them in so many ways and teach them so many important skills.

As for the people who dislike the subscription, you can still use hopscotch for free! The subscription is optional and gives you access to more features, but there is still a fully functional free version. Personally, I think the subscription was worth it and purchasing one helps support the team behind this amazing app!

Thanks for your kind words! We've always wanted Hopscotch to be a great first step in kids journey to perhaps becoming full developers themselves, especially those who might not have started without something that made those first steps more fun. Ana

Somewhat disappointed...

I'm a bit conflicted about Hopscotch. I do have fond memories spending hours coding and making games, but I don't really like how it is now. The "Newest" tab isn't the way it used to be. It only shows select things and that makes me wonder how smaller game makers are supposed to get noticed? I have been featured a few times now, but when I was first starting out it made me really happy to just have one person like it. I really liked Hopscotch, but I just wish that the tabs could go back to the way they used to be. The chance that my project might never be seen doesn't make me feel motivated enough to start coding. I am also disappointed that you have to sign up for a free trial, or as a student or teacher. This new way of signing up for the app is really confusing, and my friend just decided not to get it. I think that the app should just start off being free, and if the user really wants the premium features they could choose to subscribe.

Edit: So I have been on Hopscotch some more and I now really miss old hopscotch. The new tabs are terrible. They make me physically nauseous. Only the projects that already get likes will ever be seen. It seems almost impossible to get featured. Why do I even try.

Hi there, thank you for your feedback. We changed the tabs because we created Hopscotch so kids can learn how to code, not to compete with each other for likes. This is an educational app, and the new channels reflect what's possible to create with Hopscotch. You and your followers can always see your published projects on your home page. You can also share your games through a link with your family and friends. Also, it's super important to us that we're giving as many kids as possible the ability to learn to code - part of this is allowing people to use the free version, but another part is earning the money that pays our bills and allows us to add the next set of amazing features which will allow even more kids to benefit. Our subscriptions are currently the best way to do this. We hope you keep on Hopscotching!

Students love it when teachers bring cool and creative things to the classroom, but unless those things connect to content and curriculum, the benefits can be limited.

And, as Patricia Brown, technology specialist at Old Bonhomme Elementary in St. Louis, Missouri, explains, lessons that are "all show and no go" might raise eyebrows with administrators.

That's why Brown, also a Code.org facilitator, uses her role to help K-6 teachers bring coding, computational thinking and computer science (CS) lessons that are grounded in grade-level curriculum to students. And she's doing it in a number of content areas, including math, science and social studies, with both unplugged and device-enabled lessons.

The benefits? "You create these engaged and curious playful learners that become creators and producers. Coincidentally, we're helping them prepare to be employed in our economy," Brown says. "They will be empowered to be informed citizens and inventors."

Brown admits that at first she thought coding was just about solving puzzles or participating in events like Hour of Code. "It's not. It's about tapping into computational thinking, collaborating and learning to be persistent in problem solving instead of just robots of knowledge."

Educators can tap into Brown's philosophy and bring coding and CS to their classrooms with a few easy, curriculum-based lessons.

Explaining algorithms

Unplugged lessons that rely on working collaboratively to solve problems or are powered by physical movement are a great way to introduce CS concepts and tackle math curriculum like algorithms. In one lesson, Brown explains to students that an algorithm is just a list of steps to complete a task. She then talks about how getting ready to come to school every day is an algorithm - a recipe for what you need to complete and in what order. Students then collaborate to create a get-ready-for-school algorithm.

"This is an example of a CS term and strategy that can be applied to any content area and to real life," Brown explains.

Coding states of matter

Bringing basic coding to science curriculum on a topic like the states of matter is made easy with a resource like Ozobot. These tiny robots are sensitive to color, so when students draw lines, say on a map, the robot will do different tricks depending on the pattern and colors of the lines. Brown has used the bots to teach second graders about the states of matter - liquid, solid and gas.

She made up a story about the Ozobot looking for his long-lost brother in different parts of the world where there were different states of matter. Students must determine what state of matter they might encounter, for example, in Alaska and how the robot would move in that state. (Hint: ice makes for slow movement). What about in hot Bermuda? (Bot speeds increase). Students use Ozobot color-code markers and click-type coding on the robot itself to guide the robot through various states of matter at the proper speed.

Schooling on sound

For a third grade science unit on sound, Brown has students create instruments using Scratch and Makey Makey. For example, to create a piano, students would use Scratch to code sounds or notes using arrow keys and the space bar. By attaching Makey Makey alligator clips to an everyday object, students can make sounds resonate from, say, a glass of water or a banana by having the Makey Makey "slots" represent a command from the keyboard.

Wow... What a app!

For developer(s),I have a Dash and a Dot and when I play this game I love it but some puzzles for me are impossible to do!😡 like I try to clap so
dash can hear me, but it doesn't work!?!? Which is a little disappointing but good app for school! 👍🏻

Hey Cook3943

Wanted to reach out and see if we could help in some way. If the clap does not work for some reason you can also try tapping (very lightly) Dash's head with a pencil to see if you can get home to respond. If that still does not work please reach out to us at support@makewonder.com

Pretty good

It's a great game though I need Dash and Dot to be able to play it like what if I wanna play that game while I'm out on a road trip but I understand

Say hello to Cozmo, a gifted little guy who's got a mind of his own and a few tricks up his sleeve. He's the sweet spot where supercomputer meets loyal sidekick. He's curiously smart, a little mischievous, and unlike anything ever created.

You see, Cozmo is a real-life robot like you've only seen in movies, with a one-of-a-kind personality that evolves the more you hang out. He'll nudge you to play and keep you constantly surprised. More than a companion, Cozmo's a collaborator. He's your accomplice in a crazy amount of fun.

Some robots just have it all.

Robo Game Show - Think you're a whiz? Take Cozmo's quiz. Cozmo is the host with the most in this new Mini Game.

Roll to the Goal - Tilt, twirl, shimmy and shake your Cozmo to navigate the maze on his face.

Bug fixes and polish.

Love it! But needs some updates

I have had Cozmo for about a year, and I have gotten some ideas for Cozmo. First, what if you could have Cozmo sing songs from your music library and dance to them? Second, could you possibly make it to where you can have a conversation with Cozmo? And finally, what if you have like two modes to choose from? Like play mode and assistant mode? In play mode, Cozmo will do all the stuff he can do now.
And in assistant mode, Cozmo can tell you where your phone is, tells you when someone calls, texts, or facetimes you, order things online, etc. If you had it like that, parents and children can use Cozmo. Or, what if you had separate accounts set with either play or assistant mode? I hope you consider at least one of my suggestions. Cozmo himself is awesome, but what happened to the daily quests, or just getting to play with him? I don't like the feature where you have to feed him because 1, it's aggravating, and 2, whenever I have friends over who have never seen Cozmo, I have to tell them that Cozmo will act tired if I hadn't turned him on in a while. Overall, it's a decent little app.

If this happens, my reveiw will be 6 stars

Look, cozmo Is amazing. I got him last Christmas and he is godly. His personality is so cute and I love the games that he has. I have some suggestions to make it even better though. If this happens, I'll give coNo a 20/10.

1. More interactions with vector
I got a vector this Christmas and I'd like to see him and vector interactions more. Here are some suggestions
-being able to talk and play with vector
- have cosmos vubes and games be compatible with vector
-have them be able to have fun together!

2. Remove feeding and tuning
Look, I get that cozmo kind of has a life too. But it kind of gets annoying having to feed him every single time we use him. And tuning just really doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
Since playing with him is the main idea, why not make it the only thing you do with him

3. Remove Sparks
Everyone who gets cozmo wanted to play with him, but what happens when you run out of Sparks? You can't even use him, and you won't be able to get the daily rewards that include Sparks! For people that run out of Sparks and love their cozmo but can't use him after they run out, seeing it is just sad. That's the main reason why some reveiw are only one star.

4. And finally, bring back daily challenges!
Remember those daily challenges? Those were amazing! As another rewarding was to make you want to hang out with your cozmo even more!

Please take this into consideration anki

Thanks
Zane

Cozmo is great

Cozmo is enjoyable and he is so very cute, and I love how he gives you a fist bump and that's so cute to see a robot even do something like that, cosmo doesn't recognize me sometimes but then after a few seconds he says my name it is really awesome. He makes my happy that is what is most important to know a friendly cute happy robot my friends love him so much they ask to talk to them so does my family they really love cozmo that we bought a carrying case for him I even made him a little wooden house just for him to do anything I coded and made cubes to make cozmo to make a even bigger prymid and I also love how he gets all happy when you loose to him.

Things cozmo needs is more stuff like vector vectors voice is a bit to siri

You should add to cozmo where you can play music from your phone to him and make him sing the lyrics of the song that would be so cute to see!

In this game, you have to program a crane with simple instructions (move left, up, down, etc) to perform a prescribed task (e.g. move a column of boxes to an empty column). The objective is to use as few programming steps as possible.

It not only teaches programming concepts, but also reward bad programming practices, like programs that's inefficient, hard to understand, and don't terminate properly. OK, this is a game so I don't care good or bad programming practice.
It's definitely not for 9 to 11 year olds. Unless they are programming genius, they would probably give up.
