Description

The Foos Coding 5+ is an award-winning free educational programming game for Mac that introduces kids to the ABC's of computer science. It is the #1 learn-to-code app for ages 5 and up, designed to get your kids excited about programming. The game has won several awards, including the 2015 Parents Choice Gold Award, the 2014 Editors Choice for Excellence in Design from Childrens Technology Review, and Apple Editors Choice & Top Educational App.

The Foos Coding 5+ was created by codeSpark, a company that delivers computer science education to kids in over 150 countries by turning programming into play. The company was founded when its CEO wanted to introduce his daughters to coding but couldn't find any resources that were girl-friendly ways to learn the ABC's of computer science.

The Foos Coding 5+ is an introduction for those who have no experience programming and is all-ages friendly! That means anyone from age five to one hundred and five can play, have fun and learn real programming logic. We've teamed up with Princeton and Harvey Mudd University professors to turn programming into play. Kids learn how to code via a series of exciting adventures.

Our word-free interface allows anyone anywhere in the world with access to a Mac device or computer system can play this game without any language barriers. They'll track down a sneaky donut thief, rescue puppies lost in space and serve up gourmet meals while mastering core computer science concepts.

With over forty puzzle levels and three unique creative play areas for storytelling and animation, The Foos Coding 5+ offers endless hours of fun while learning essential coding skills such as logic, sequencing pattern recognition control flow algorithmic thinking problem solving.

Parents are using The Foos first when introducing their kids or students (teachers)to programming/computer science because it has been designed based on curriculum from MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)and Exploring Computer Science at UCLA (University of California Los Angeles). Core concepts include: Pattern recognition problem-solving sequencing spatial visualization algorithmic thinking debugging loops conditionals etc., which are essential computational thinking skills required for future success.

"The Foos is easy-to-learn full-of-playful characters," says Children's Technology Review."Most appealing," says Parents' Choice Awards "was seeing how my children enjoyed working together on puzzles even my teenager was completely engaged!"

The gameplay offered by The Foos Coding 5+ is inspired by visual programming languages such as Scratch from MIT Alice from CMU (Carnegie Mellon University), Logo SmallTalk Squeak among others beginner-level languages used worldwide today!

There are NO in-app purchases required within The Foos; it's entirely free! This feature makes it accessible globally without any financial constraints or limitations whatsoever!
