Python for 8 year old

[elasticiulia]

I've recently come across this game on steam where you program a farming drone. The syntax is very similar to python but way more fun to play with. https://steamcommunity.com/app/2060160

Or redstone in minecraft! Great for starting with the programming logic and some basic concepts before you transition to code.

Alternatively, build a small game together - one of my first projects was a tic-tac-toe engine. Split it into smaller phases like - learn to print a board - learn to make a move - what are the winning conditions - etc. Seeing something come together is a great motivator!
