> 3 dayThe program was challenging, which is EXACTLY what I was hoping for when I purchased it for our son (12). The many other classes hes taken have been fun, but not an intellectual stretch for him. With the help of this course, our son transformed a loosely-held extra-curricular activity into a serious personal pursuit, completing both the java game lessons & also his first ever HTML Website.

> 3 dayI picked this software up for my 18 year old daughter. Shes a freshman in a college graphic art degree. She loves learning code. She told me this program was confusing to her, but added that she already knew how to write HTML which is part of the Javascript in this program. So trying to run through it already knowing how to do it was confusing to her. So I signed in and gave it a whirl. I was confused at first until I understood how the program works. Its a little dated in its layout - for instance once you finish a lesson you have to scroll all the way back up to the top to click on the next lesson. It would be nice to have a smoother interface - but Im here to review the content. And the couple of lessons I did were very clear and easy to follow. For me - Im not sure a younger child would follow as easily but then again, if theyre into this stuff, theyll figure it out. In addition to the written lesson theres a video overview to help you our on each lesson as well.

> 3 dayI got this for my 10 year old that wants to be a gaming coder when he grows up. He has completed the first lesson and say it was easy to follow and is learning a lot (he is still interested in being a coder, so it cant be that bad). The kids growing up in todays world will need to know all the tecky stuff when it comes to electronics, so getting them more advance isnt a bad idea, especially if its what the want to go to college for. Very happy to be educating his brain while having fun. Very happy with this coding program.

> 3 dayThis product is advertised for kids 11 years and older. As an adult, I wanted to learn Javascript so I purchased this, thinking it would be somewhat easy to understand, since it’s made for kids. I’m NOT computer illiterate and yet the lessons and instructions seem to assume that the user already is familiar with website-building. Unless you already know quite a bit about creating websites, I don’t recommend picking this up. It created a lot of frustration and questions and it was painstakingly slow to go through the lessons. UGH!

> 3 dayI bought this for my nephew who is a very bright kid. I may have just opened up a whole new realm of possibilities for him! There is a huge push in our state for kids to learn how to code/program and I think this is a great product because you get to see the results of your efforts. He is excited about it. I may come back and update my review to let you know that he finished it. I think this is a perfect gift for kids. It introduces them to some very practical skills and perhaps even down a career path.

> 3 dayMy 9 year old has really enjoyed this software. Having only had previous experience with Scratch he was very interested in learning to code Java script and I believe this has given him a strong base. Thank you for a good product thag helps my son engage in his passion for learning to code.

> 3 dayI purchased for my teenage son. He opened it, checked it out once & never touched again. Not sure if it was to hard or to easy. It certainly didn’t entertain him. Not worth purchase.

> 3 dayThe PIIN number did not work so the gift could not be used and was returned through Amazon. Very disappointing as it was a birthday gift for my grandson.

> 3 dayIve taken the course personally and now am ordering as a gift, cant wait to give this awesome product as a gift to someone I know who will love to code. Great program, really helps you learn html, css, and JavaScript in a fun way, and comes with a usb. The online chat support is very helpful with quick answers to questions.
