So useful. Thanks for sharing. We live in a modern technological age, so it can be said that computers and other electronics have become important items in life. I see that my son seems to be very interested in computers, he is curious and loves to explore. That’s why I want to let my child learn through coding to see if it is suitable for him? I find Scartch Junior to be a great fit for my son and it has a child-friendly interface as well. Thank you for this suggestion and other options for age-appropriate categories.

Tbh just to cope up with current IT industry your child don’t need to learn coding at early age of their life. With growing speed of upgrading technology whatever your child learns will be absolete by the time they are eligible to work in IT industry. So i would suggest not to force your child to learn coding, if he/she is himself interested then you can start with coding languages like C or C++ to help them clear there coding concepts and improve skills from base level. Later they can learn any other programming language with ease.
I would say best age to start learning coding skills is 15+, before that it is not going to make much of a difference other than stressing and mounting pressure on your child’s mind.

It’s good for youngsters to learn code for these microcontroller projects but if people under 18 want to learn actual electronics which involves soldering and the use of tools they have big problem health and safety rules mean shops wont sell tools to under 18s in case they injure themselves so they can no longer do electronics or model making as a hobby and are reduced to looking at screens how depressing
