Creative Coding teaches your child to code by helping them make their own custom video games! Ourproject-based, multi-level classes are amazingly fun yet very effective in teaching creative problem solving AND emotional resilience. As your creative girl or boy has fun bringing their ideas to life, they iterate through the emotional cycle of Coding (idea->excitement->effort->frustration->more effort->triumph!) With our support and positive encouragement. Repeating this cycle not only builds great coders, but more importantly, develops emotional persistence that will help students enjoy taking on new challenges in all aspects of their lives.
Students new to coding will participate in the Creative Coding core curriculum, learning the fundamental elements of coding using MIT’s Scratch to create their very own computer games!
Students with previous Scratch experience will enjoy the Advanced Curriculum, where each daycontains a unique mix of coding challenges, techniques, and hacks. Our classes are designed to be repeated an infinite number of times. As students complete a class, they go up one level, like in video
games, and increase their coding skills, speed and proficiency. Many parents and educators are realizing that the benefits of learning to code at a young age extend far beyond the skill itself. Through the “brain exercise” of coding, coders build intelligence like athletes build muscles. Just as importantly, they develop stronger problem solving skills, confidence over technology, and emotional persistence.

Teaching kids the joy of coding computers by helping them write their own customized computer games!
Today’s computers are more like a box of crayons than a calculator. The most important traits for coding today are creativity and persistence.
We teach girls & boys the fundamentals of coding by making it fun. Our non-sequential, project-based approach wins rave reviews from parents & kids alike!
We believe it’s a child’s own ideas that drive their motivation. Our open and accepting programs focus on nurturing each student’s drive to learn by harnessing their imagination, and guiding them along their chosen path to achieve their goals in the world of computer coding.
Creative Coding began in 2013 with a single class taught by founder Eric Fredrickson; we have since taught thousands of kids through dozens of schools and camps, and our mission is still the same: to help kids discover the joy of coding. We are constantly striving to grow and improve in our techniques, our offerings, our administrative efficiency, and our social and environmental impact.
Join us in our journey, while we help guide your child on theirs
