If your kid is going to spend time on a screen, this is the best possible way to spend it. Code.org is the rare educational platform that actually lives up to the hype, offering a legitimate path from 'I like games' to 'I can build games.'
It’s safe, free, and deeply intentional about how it handles data. In a world of brain-rot apps, this is the gym for their brain.
