> 24 hourI purchased this for my son as an activity work on during summer break when he has some free time. From the initial reaction that I have received so far, it is going to be a good learning tool. He is 10 and it does require some help as it is for older kids but he is learning and having fun.

> 24 hourMy 12 year old has been playing Minecraft for quite some time on the game system and just recently has been interested in coding . So this was a good purchase based on that alone. He has been enjoying every moment of it and won’t stop talking about all the “cool” things he’s doing . My 5 year old has been watching him too so now she’s been involved in helping him . Pretty impressive so far .

> 24 hourAs an adult who has a technical degree this is a decent program. My 12 year old needed a little instruction due to never coding. Overall I feel it is a beneficial program and hope to achieve some coding goals to help him with future opportunities.

> 24 hourMy daughter loves Minecraft and doesn’t know a lot about coding but has wanted to learn how to create mods. I was so excited to get this for her. She picked it up pretty quick. She has had a lot of fun with it and found it easy once she got the hang of it. Would definitely recommend!

> 24 hourOverall this appears to be a great training lesson. It has a portal that guides you through the lesson sections and has great resources to assist as you go. The initial content appears to be very solid, but time will tell if my 10 year old picks it up. We did have some initial issues getting the software working but were able to resolve it pretty quickly. I will return later once my kid runs through the class to update my review, but initial impressions are great!

> 24 hourI love this online tutorial. My son has been bugging me everyday to get this card for him to do these tutorials so he can get better at coding, and what I like about it is that he doesnt need to have prior experience. My son loves these tutorials!!! I live that it has Live Mentor Support!!! Thank you!!! This is so easy to use!! If you have kids I would recommend it!!!

> 24 hourWe got this course for our boys 11 and 14. The 14 year old likes it a lot. The course is challenging but he has been able to figure things out on his own. Our 11 year old has only done scratch style programming and gets stuck much easier. He needs a little more involvement from me or his older brother, but Having the chat option is great because you can get help from a real teacher. My boys are using this as curriculum for a homeschool coding class. Using minecraft as the basis gets them excited to work on it and motivates them to keep trying when they get stuck. I would recommend this to anyone who already likes minecraft and is interested in learning to code.

> 24 hourThis program makes it easy to learn the basic coding structure. It allows my kids to create mods for Minecraft, relatively easy. I like that it is using Java as that is the direction coding is continuing to move. Whether you are into Minecraft or not this program can help.

> 24 hourI know nothing about coding, but I bought this for my nephew since hes really into computer games. He said there are some parts that are easy but hes gotten stuck in a few areas and it took him awhile to figure it out. Overall he enjoys it.
