Coding for kids with Codemoji

Source: Codemoji® – Coding for Kids!

I love all of the different takes on getting kids coding, and Codemoji® looks at using emojis to replace a lot of the static code someone would use when learning programming.

Without an account, students can use the a few different playgrounds to get their feet wet. Codemoji® also has two activites up on Hour of Code: HTML Hour of Code activity or Bamboo Js. There also also several lessons available on the site that are free to use.

The paid account($30/monthly) unlocks projects, over 500 lessons, progress tracking, account management and more.
