MindWare Code Hopper- Computer Coding Fun! Active Game for Preschoolers
TOYS THAT TEACH: Code Hopper from MindWare, introduces your preschooler to computer coding in a hop, skip and a jump! Your young learner will hop through a sequence he or she creates after placing the bright foam mats one by one.
ACTIVE GAME: With the help of our instructions, you will guide your child through the logic of programming while keeping his or her body busy and active.
EARLY LEARNING: Our bright foam mats link together to create a flowchart of fun and stimulate the logic of computer coding. This fun interactive activity will build a foundation for future STEM success while also building big muscle groups, improving balance and coordination!
INCLUDES: 12 Two-sided Mats and a Parent Guide (Ages 3 and up)
Although very simple to play, Code Hopper teaches the advanced concept of algorithmic thinking. This programming fundamental has three basic elements: SEQUENCING (DO this) Code Hopper's Action mats tell your child what to do. When your child puts them in a sequence, he or she creates the "program". CONDITIONALS (IF-THEN) Yes and No mats extend the programming to include decision making. The Yes and No mats "branch" off, so the path your child will take may change based on the conditions. REPETITION (REPEAT) The third concept of programming and algorithmic thinking is repetition. Computers are able to repeat things thousands of times with the same results- something humans are usually less successful at because eventually a mistake is made. In programming you can repeat a single action or an entire sequence. This active game keeps bodies busy while developing their young minds!
