Building Coding Skills with Robots and Monsters
Coming up on Tuesday, June 13th from 2-3:30 pm, the Pasadena Public Library will have our next Tablets and Tech program at the Central Library on our 4th floor. Kids will move around different iPad stations exploring a wide range of apps that incorporate accessories for tangible play. Kids will be using the passport below to assist them in taking turns to explore each app. Many of the apps have educational benefits for kids. Here I want to share the ones that focus especially on coding.
