Description
Programming with Scratch is a 14-class course designed to introduce young learners to the world of coding. Using Scratch, a visual programming language developed by MIT, students will learn fundamental programming concepts while creating their own interactive stories, games, and animations.
This course is perfect for beginners and requires no prior coding experience. By the end of the course, students will have a solid foundation in computational thinking and be ready to tackle more advanced programming challenges.
Course Details
- Age: 6-16 years
- Level: Beginner
- Duration: 14 live classes
- Start Date: 2nd August 2026
- Schedule: Flexible weekday or weekend slots (around school)
- Live Classes with Instructors
Scratch Programming for Kids — Frequently Asked Questions
Everything parents ask about our live Scratch coding & block-programming classes for kids aged 6–16.
What is the best age for kids to start learning Scratch?+
Scratch is a fantastic first coding language for children, and our Programming with Scratch course is built for ages 6-16. Younger kids build colourful animations and simple games with guided help, while older kids take on logic-heavy games and multi-sprite projects — every child gets projects matched to their age.
Is Scratch real coding, and what will my child actually learn?+
Yes — Scratch is real programming. It teaches the same core concepts used in Python, JavaScript and every other language: sequencing, loops, conditionals (if/then logic), events, variables and debugging. Kids build with drag-and-drop blocks instead of typing syntax, so they focus on how programs think. It is the ideal foundation before moving on to text-based coding.
Does my child need any coding experience to join the Scratch classes?+
No prior experience is needed. Programming with Scratch starts from the very beginning — no typing skills, maths background or earlier coding required. Our engineers guide every child live, step by step, so complete beginners feel confident from the very first class.
What will my child build in the Scratch coding classes?+
A real project almost every week — interactive games, animated stories, characters that move and talk, and arcade-style games with scoring and levels. Kids design their own sprites and backdrops, add sound and user controls, and finish the course with a showcase project and a certificate of completion.
Are the Scratch classes live or pre-recorded?+
They are 100% live online on Zoom — never pre-recorded videos. Every class is taught by a real software engineer who mentors your child directly in a small batch. If your child misses a session, we share the recording so they never fall behind.
How much do the Scratch coding classes cost?+
Programming with Scratch is ₹3,999 in India and $99 internationally for the full live course. You can also book a free demo class first, with no payment required.
When do classes start and what is the schedule?+
New batches start regularly — the next one begins 2nd August 2026. Each live class is about 1 hour, with flexible weekday OR weekend slots arranged around your child's school. Just tell us what suits your family when you book a free demo.
What can my child learn after Scratch?+
Scratch builds the perfect foundation for text-based coding. After it, most kids move on to our AI Explorers course — where they train real machine-learning models and build AI projects — or to Python for Young Developers, where they write real code. Many families choose our Scratch + AI bundle to follow the full path in one go.
Who Can Join Our Courses?
Our courses are tailored for young minds, from early learners to teenagers. We have different levels and pacing to suit various age groups, ensuring that every child can learn at their own speed.
