More About PBS KIDS ScratchJr

PBS KIDS ScratchJr encourages kids create their own interactive stories and games. Learn coding basics through programing games and activities featuring characters from hit PBS KIDS shows like Wild Kratts, Molly of Denali, Odd Squad, Arthur, Nature Cat, Peg + Cat, and Ready Jet Go!

This creative coding app is perfect for children ages 5-8 who love to tell stories and create games. With simple programming tools, kids can design interactive stories and games, allowing for endless possibilities and hours of fun.

Through colorful programming blocks, children can make characters move, jump, dance, and sing. This makes coding easy and enjoyable for kids, as they learn to solve problems, design projects, and express themselves creatively.

But PBS KIDS ScratchJr is more than just a learning app for kids. It also brings early school concepts into the home, making it a fun and educational experience for children.

One of the app's main features is coding games and programming concepts. Kids can practice coding and learn basic concepts by snapping together color-coded blocks for motion, sound, look, trigger, and control. They can also create sequences to animate characters and make them interact in exciting ways.

The app also features over 150 PBS KIDS characters, including popular ones from shows like Wild Kratts, Molly of Denali, and Arthur. Kids can use these characters to create their own interactive stories and projects, adding their own creativity and imagination to the mix.

In addition to coding, the app also offers painting games for kids to create their own characters and backgrounds. They can also use the voice recording tool to add their own sounds and voices to the stories they create.

With eight story starters and different sets of characters from PBS KIDS shows, children can use coding and programming to edit and complete their own stories. This not only helps them learn coding concepts, but also encourages their storytelling skills.

PBS KIDS ScratchJr is a collaboration between PBS, Scratch Foundation, and the DevTech Research Group at Boston College. It is only available for tablet devices and is committed to creating a safe and secure environment for children and families. To learn more about the app's privacy policy, visit pbskids.org/privacy.
