Good to see a little more imagination going into the task of getting kids to start coding, and leveraging their love of what's still essentially a children's sci-fi tv series.

Cheers. Passed this onto our computing coordinator as they're having to find fun ways to incorporate more coding into the curriculum.

This has to be one of the better ways to get kids coding that I've seen.

I'm going to check this out when I get home, I think two of my kids would find this interesting, the third one is only two years old and would probably prefer to watch Balamory on Youtube. ;)
