Creative Coding for Kids .. (and Teachers and Parents)
summary
Shows how kids get hooked by building visual code in a browser using open processor and simple commands like circle x y size, randomness and a repeat loop that draws 300 circles in seconds. Covers low‑cost hardware like the micro bit and Chromebooks (~£250), demos Perlin noise landscapes, recursion and sine‑wave art, and experiments with GANs for emotional images plus a robot trained on pop songs. Practical, hands‑on examples and free tools that actually run.
