This camp is perfect for beginners who are new to Scratch. If you're curious about coding and ready to start your journey, this is the place to be!
It is preferable and highly recommended to have 2 screens. If that is not possible, a working knowledge of how to navigate from one window to another will be sufficient.

As a parent, I encourage you to support and supervise your child's exploration of Scratch coding. In addition to coding, your child may also need to search Google for images to download and upload to Scratch projects. While this can be an enriching part of the creative process, it's important to guide your child in using safe and appropriate images. I recommend discussing the importance of respecting copyright laws and selecting images that are suitable for their projects. Furthermore, your child may also explore using background remover tools online to remove backgrounds from images and create PNG images for their projects. While these tools can enhance creativity, it's essential to ensure that your child understands how to use them safely and responsibly. I recommend supervising their use of such tools and discussing the importance of respecting privacy and using images ethically. By actively engaging with your child and providing guidance in these areas, you can help them navigate the digital world responsibly while fostering their creativity and learning in Scratch coding.
