Or maybe by hitting on button the blue squares move to new locations, upping the degree of difficulty. Some kids can make the connections quickly while others will need repetition of the exact same concept with more light boards to master it.

The levels are quite challenging and require a lot of planning and trial and error.which is good. The first is that there could be more levels to reinforce the concepts. There are two areas I would like to see a change. The recommended age range is appropriate. The only thing comparable that allows your kids to "stealth learn" difficult concepts is Dragon Box for algebra. You get to easily compile your program to see the effect and where the bugs are. No oppressive learning or reading required to get out the gate. This program is very impressive for intuitively introducing kids to the ideas of subroutines, loops, if-then statements. There are NO in-app purchases in Lightbot. Multiple players can advance at their own pace in their own save slot, and also compete on number of levels finished, number of stars collected and number of overall commands used to complete the game.

Lightbot: Programming Puzzles Aged 9+ is available on iOS, Android, Windows, Mac and Kindle). Lightbot Junior is available on iOS, Android and Kindle. Lightbot couldn’t have come at a better time for us as the first week of January 2016 sees us start our new Code Club at the local school. I’m sure that she will still get frustrated when the projects don’t go according to plan, but our time with ‘the bot’ will be a good reference point to draw on: test often and don’t worry when it doesn’t work. The failure had become funny because she knew that she only had to remove one or two of the last commands rather than everything. But another thing also happened when the robot did something unexpected: she laughed at the silly manoeuvre it was making. After sitting with her and encouraging her to click the ‘run’ button as many times as she could, these outbursts subsided (although anyone with a 7 year old knows you can never eliminate them). Invariably, this resulted in a failure and she got annoyed: “This stupid app!”. To begin with, my daughter would try to write all of the commands needed to complete the stage before seeing if it worked. But this isn’t learning it’s just fun.Įach stage of Lightbot Junior gets progressively harder which makes it more important that you test as you go along. My daughter is just starting to use Scratch and these ideas are new to her.
