In this section we try to describe coding
What Is Coding?
Coding, also known as programming, is the process of writing instructions that a computer can understand and follow. These instructions are written in specific programming languages, such as Python, Scratch, or JavaScript.
Why Is It Called “Coding”?
Computers don’t understand regular human language. Instead, we use code — a special language that tells the computer what to do. That’s why we call it coding — we are writing code!
What Is Coding Used For?
Coding is everywhere in our digital world. It helps us create:
Mobile apps and video games
Websites and online stores
Smart devices and robots
Animations and interactive stories
Whenever you use a phone app or browse a website, coding is working behind the scenes.
Can Kids Learn Coding?
Absolutely! Thanks to tools like Scratch and Scratch Junior, children as young as 5 years old can start learning to code in a fun, visual way. Learning to code helps kids:
Develop logical thinking and problem-solving skills
Boost creativity
Build confidence using technology
Understand how the digital world works
Final Thoughts
Coding teaches us how to talk to computers — and that’s a superpower in today’s world. It’s not just for grown-ups or tech experts. With the right tools and guidance, even young children can learn how to build games, create stories, and bring their ideas to life through coding.
