GLICODE Programming with Pocky!!
GLICODE is a fun and educational mobile app that turns candy into code. It allows kids as young as 6 to learn the three fundamentals of programming - sequences, loops and conditionality.
Physical objects help younger children learn more intuitively, so we turned the popular snack Pocky into a new visual language that any child can understand. Simply lay out your Pocky sequence, capture it with your phone’s camera and hit the play button to see it executed and control the game’s character. If you get it right you can eat your delicious code and move onto the next level!
PETS
The first programming learning kit for kids
PETS is an intuitive, physical experience-based programming learning kit. Kids can program its movement by inserting tangible command blocks into the top of PETS.
PETS doesn’t require any PC or tablet. Kids can touch the command, move the object, and learn the basic of the programming. All you need to program PETS movement is the wooden blocks which fit to the top holes of PETS.
PETS is suitable as the first step in learning to program and developing computational thinking, even before the visual programming.
